Nicetas I of Constantinople (or Niketas; Greek: Νικήτας; died 6 February 780) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople[1] from 766 to 780.
However, Nicetas I was quite unpopular in Constantinople because he was a supporter of iconoclasm.
[citation needed] After his death in 780, Nicetas I was declared a heretic.
He was succeeded by Paul IV of Constantinople.
