followers of Arnold of Brescia (q.v.). Many seem to have adhered to the doctrines of Arnold even after his death, and to have propagated them in Upper Italy. The Arnoldists were condemned by Pope Lucius III at the council of Verona in 1184. The name occurs also later, as in a law of Frederick II against the heretics (1224); but it is doubtful whether the name was merely copied from the condemnatory decree, or whether they continued to exist as a sect.
