Nicetas, Niceanus

Nicetas, Niceanus an Eastern ecclesiastic of uncertain age, was chartophylax at Nicaea. He wrote De Schismate inter Eccles. Groecam et Romanan, extant in MS. in Paris and elsewhere; Leo Allatius gives a fragment of it in De Synodo Photian. Also perhaps De Azymis et Sabbatorum Jejunio et Nuptiis Sacerdotun, which others ascribe to Nicetas Pectoratus (q.v.). See Cave, Hist. Lit. D, p. 14.
