Followers of Nestorius. He was patriarch of Constantinople and was condemned as a heretic for maintaining that the divine and human natures were not merged into one in Christ, therefore believing that it was improper to call Mary the mother of God.

The Nestorian Church of the East has a website ... and they go on at length to describe themselves. If they're actually nestorian (in the sense of believing the "two persons" heresy), they do a good job of hiding it.
