Greek for Lovers of Truth.

Graf von Manteuffel, as president, organized this society in Berlin, 1736, upon Wolf's philosophical teaching, the search after positive truth. Kenning's *Cyclopaedia of Freemasonry* says they adopted a hexalogue (from the Greek, six and words) of axioms, of which two only are given by Lenning:

1. 1. Let truth be the only end and only object of your understanding and will.
2. 2. Hold nothing for truth, hold nothing for falsehood, as long as you are not convinced of either by some sufficient grounds.

In the system of the African Builders, the fifth grade was called Alethophile, some connection seeming to have existed between the two societies.
