Niketas 35 was patrikios and strategos of Sicilia; owner of a seal dateable to the eighth or ninth century: DOSeals I 5.21 = Zacos and Veglery 2255. Obv.: cruciform monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει, with τω - σω - δου - λω in the corners. Rev.: + - Νικητα - πατρικιω - κ' στρατ' - Σικελ.

Possibly identical with Niketas 34; the letter forms resemble those on the latter's seals.
