The Taborites were a radical faction of the Hussite movement in the early 15th century, emerging in what is now the Czech Republic. They were named after the hill of Tabor, where they established a community. The Taborites advocated for a more egalitarian society, emphasizing communal living and the rejection of traditional church authority. Their beliefs included a strong commitment to the Bible as the sole source of authority and the practice of the Eucharist in both kinds, meaning both bread and wine were offered to the laity. The Taborites played a significant role in the Hussite Wars, fighting for their religious and social ideals.
