Persian admiral placed in charge of the fleet dispatched by ARYANDES to attack the Greek city of BARCA in LIBYA c. 513 BCE (4.167.1). Badres has a Persian name; related forms of it occur in tablets from the PERSEPOLIS Fortification Archive (Schmitt 1967, 129). His epithet identifies him as part of the PASARGADAE, one of the Persian tribes rallied by CYRUS (II) (see 1.125). After the Persian general AMASIS captures Barca, Badres attempts to attack CYRENE as well on the journey back, but Amasis prevents it (4.201–3).
