	Battus - LoveToKnow 1911

		150-156), Battus, having an impediment in his speech, consulted the oracle at Delphi, and was told to found a colony in Libya; according to the Theraeans, Battus was entrusted with this mission by their aged king Grinus.
		In another version, there was civil war in Thera; Battus, leader of one party, was banished, and, on applying to the oracle, was recommended to take out a colony to "the continent" (Schol.

	Cyrene - LoveToKnow 1911
		This was in the middle of the 7th century B.C. The result was Cyrene, so called (it was said) from a local nymph, who has been shown by Studniczka to have been a Nature goddess, like the Greek Artemis.
		The kings henceforth bore alternately the names Battus and Arcesilaus, of which the first is said to be simply the native Libyan word for " king ": the latter is, of course, Greek.
		Under Battus (570 B.C.?) a fresh band of settlers was invited from Greece, and the colony tended to become henceforth more maritime and democratic.

	Nematodirosis Farming UK
		The life cycle of N. battus essentially involves transmission from one season’s lamb crop to the next and the accumulation of infection on pasture takes place over a period of grazing by susceptible lambs (and occasionally dairy calves).
		battus worms are sometimes seen in tangled knots with a characteristic ‘cotton wool ball’ appearance, although in acute cases these may have been expelled before death.
		While anthelmintic resistance by N. battus is not currently recognised as a problem in the UK, its appearance is inevitable and should be monitored.

	During the late eighteenth century, Americans radically revised how they conceived of criminals
		John Battus: "The Confession of John Battus, a mulatto, aged 19 years and 7 months who was executed at Dedham, November 8, 1804, for the crimes of a most cruel rape and murder on the body of Salome Talbot, of Canton, in the 14th year of her age" (1804)
		The second essential fact to know about John Battus is that observers at the time thought there was no apparent motive or "cause" for his actions, and nothing in his background would suggest he had experienced anything that would lead him to commit such a crime.
		If, according to Enlightenment thought, human beings would not engage in evil acts unless something in their past experiences corrupted them towards such behavior, and nothing in Battus’ past suggested he had been corrupted in such a fashion, what is the logical conclusion about Battus — from the perspective of the new Enlightenment thought?
