  Antiochene Liturgy
The line may be further continued to the Byzantine Rite (the older Liturgy of St. Basil and the later and shorter one of St. John Chrysostom), and through it to the Armenian use.
Of the Antiochene liturgies drawn up for actual use, the oldest one and the original from which the others have been derived is the Greek Liturgy of St. James.
The Syriac Liturgy of St. James now extant is not the original one used before the schism, but a modified form derived from it by the Jacobites for their own use.

 Liturgy of Jerusalem
That is to say, the Liturgy that became famous as the use of the patriarchical church of Antioch, that through the influence of that Church spread throughout Syria and Asia Minor, and was the starting point of the development of the Byzantine rite, is itself originally the local liturgy, not of Antioch, but of Jerusalem.
That it was actually composed by St. James the Less, as first Bishop of Jerusalem, is not now believed by any one; but two forms in it show that it was originally used as local rite of the city of Jerusalem.
Adopted unchanged at Antioch (the local allusion to "holy and glorious Sion" was left unaltered), it imposed itself with new authority as the use of the patriarchical Church.

James was actually the son of Joseph the Betrothed from a previous marriage.
James' liturgy influenced the development of others and it is still the daily liturgy of the Oriental Orthodox Churches.

James was not a follower of his relative until after the resurrection; he became, with Peter, a leader in the Christian community at Jerusalem.
Although James observed the Jewish law himself and is thought to have been James the Just because of that, he did not wish to impose the Jewish law on Gentile converts and was the advocate for this policy and for Paul's mission to the Gentiles at the Council of Jerusalem (49).

The family of Antiochene liturgies begins with the liturgy of the Apostolic Constitutions, which claims to be written by St. Clement of Rome.
The oldest of the Antiochene is the Greek Liturgy of St. James.
While the oldest manuscript containing the liturgy dates to the tenth century, St. Jerome knew of this liturgy in 420, and it appears that the liturgy used by St. John Chrysostom in the late fourth century was very similar to this one as well.

 Palmer: Origines Litugicæ, Doc 03
The Monophysite liturgy of St. James is written in the Syriac language, the orthodox in Greek.
Whoever compares these parts of the orthodox and Monophysite liturgies together, will be surprised at their minute agreement in sentiments and expressions, when he considers the centuries that have elapsed since the separation of the orthodox and the Monophysites.
The liturgy of Clement may therefore be justly referred to the end of the third century or beginning of the fourth; and by means of it we can ascertain what parts of the liturgies of St. James may be traced back from the fifth to the third century.

Outwardly, the text is much like the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, but differs by not having the Litany of the Catechumens, giving a slightly different text at the Words of Institution, as well as certain differences in the celebrant’s “exclamations” during the Eucharistic Canon and a different selection of Ambon Prayers at the end.
These Liturgies—those of St. James, St. Mark, and St. Peter—were in use among the Greeks of southern Italy and were brought by monks from there to Mt. Athos in the later Middle Ages.

 The Brother of God
This Liturgy is a long one and its existence "puts pay" to the ill-advised liturgical theory that early Church liturgies were originally short and were lengthened over time by the addition of "unnecessary accretions." The opposite is really the truth.
The Liturgy of St Basil of later times was also long and St John Chrysostom's Liturgy, which is the Liturgy in greatest use by the Eastern Orthodox Church today, is actually the shortest of the four (including the Liturgy of St Gregory the Dialogist of the Presanctified said during Lent).
It is also the former Liturgy of the Church of Antioch and the Antiochian Orthodox Church and a number of theologians and Churchmen of that jurisdiction have already expressed their wish to see this Liturgy return to their Church as their daily use Liturgy.

The service you refer to is the Divine Liturgy of St. James the Apostle, which is the oldest liturgy in existence and from which all of the other liturgies derive from.
This is because the spoon was put into use somewhere around the end of the fourth century if I'm not mistaken, and by then St. James' Liturgy fell out of use in favor of the Liturgies of St. Basil the Great and St. John Chrysostom, which we use today.
I had heard of that practice with the St. James liturgy long ago, but didn't know there was a St. Mark's liturgy with the same practice, as well.

Your experience does not surprise me.

Although all liturgy has an element of hybridisation, this took place in ancient times and over the intervening centuries the rites acquired a homogeneity distinctive to the spiritual tradition of each church.
In considering the ceremonial of Saint James as celebrated in the British Orthodox Church it was felt that as far as possible it should follow th e traditions of our Mother Church, especially as in all other services we were committed to follow the rites and ceremonies of the Coptic Church.
