Anonymus 160 was a domestikos of the Hikanatoi; owner of a seal dateable to the ninth century: Schlumberger, Sig., p. 351, no. 2. Obv.: cruciform monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει with τω - σω - δου - λω in the corners. Rev.: ....... καὶ δο[μεστί]κῳ τ[ων] [Ἱκανά]τω[ν]. His name and dignity are both lost. Schlumberger dated the seal to the eighth or ninth century, but the Hikanatoi are not attested before the reign of the emperor Nicephorus I (Nikephoros 8) who is recorded as creating the corps; cf. Haldon, Byzantine Praetorians, pp. 245-246. Cf. also Ioannes 205 and Anonymus 503.
