After two years of prevarication and temporizing by Acacius, Pope Felix III of Rome condemned the act and excommunicated Acacius (484), although this was largely ignored in Constantinople, even after the death of Acacius in 489.
Nakon dvije godine Akacijevog pretvaranja i odugovlačenja, rimski papa Feliks III. je osudio njegov čin i ekskuminicirao ga (484.), što je u velikoj mjeri bilo zanemareno u Konstantinopolu, pa čak i nakon smrti Akacija 489. godine.
