TheBateinoi orBatini were aGermanic tribe recorded by theRoman scholarClaudius Ptolemy. According to Ptolemy they were located "above" (normally north in Ptolemy) theBanochaemae tribe, who were settled near the upperElbe, and "below" (presumably south of) theAsciburgius mountain.[1] That is all history knows for certain about them.
In general the area must be near the point where modernGermany,Poland and theCzech Republic meet. Based on the similarity of names in the region, it has been proposed that they lived inBautzen inSaxony.[citation needed]
