Also known as prosphoron, panagia

A prosphora (, offering, or in Demotic Greek πρόσφορον) is a small loaf of leavened bread used in Orthodox Christian, Eastern Lutheran and Greek Catholic (Byzantine) liturgies. The classical plural form is prosphorai (). The term originally meant any offering made to a temple, but in Orthodox Christianity, as well as Byzantine Rite Lutheranism and Catholicism, it has come to mean specifically the bread offered at the Eucharist during Divine Liturgy.
