GALEOTE, Manuel. HISTORICAL-LINGUISTIC NOTES ON BATEA. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2016, n.69, pp.217-227. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n69a09.

The Alonso de Molina's dictionaries (1555-1571) include American loanwords in Spanish and words of the old Spanish language. We have studied the denominations, the meanings and the characteristics of batea. With historical-linguistic, lexicographical and documentary resources it is proposed that batea can be the earliest American word. It could have been born of a Castilian archaism (batear), which had an unforeseeable diffusion in Spanish America, thanks to the catholic religion and the need to christen the idolaters.
