In another thread we are discussing the first 7 major church councils.

I'd love to have a list detail/s about the lesser church councils of the early church, such as the 1st and 2nd Council of Orange (441 and 529)..or even those before this time.

Here is a Wicki on this topic, but I thought you guys might have better resources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_church_councils_(pre-ecumenical)


the Council of Rome of 155
the Council of Rome of 193
the Council of Ephesus of 193
the Council of Carthage of 251
the Council of Iconium of 258[13]
the Council of Antioch of 264
the Council of Arabia of 246–247
the Council of Elvira of 306
the Council of Carthage of 311
the Synod of Neo-Caesarea of c. 314
the Council of Ancyra of 314
the Council of Arles of 314

I'd really love to read of these councils chronologically so that I can grasp the slow development of Catholic doctrine as each generation passes.
 
Most works I've seen or heard of are on the "ecumenical" councils. I think you'll have to research them independently and glean the information from historical surveys. You can get a decent introduction on the lesser councils here.
