The son of the royal Wolfenbüttel consistorial secretary Zacharias Bötticher (* Grüningen / Halberstadt; † 1646) and his wife Ilse, the daughter of the council chamber in Minden Heinrich Schlieck and his wife Agneta Reinking, was born in Braunschweig because the imperial troops had taken the fortress Wolfenbüttel where the parents' actual place of residence was. At the age of eight he lost his father, so the mother made sure that he attended several trivial schools. In 1658 he moved to the University of Helmstedt , where he worked as a private teacher for his financial support and gave private lectures at the university.
