A collection of prayers or a liturgical book, particularly in Eastern Christian traditions.
From Greek 'euche' (prayer) + 'logia' (collection or study of). The word combines the concept of 'good prayer' with the suffix indicating a collection or body of texts.
Euchologia are the ancient predecessors of modern prayer books—some surviving examples are over 1,500 years old and show how Christian worship practices evolved across different cultures!
