Buth was a Aerians warrior, who are a group of humanoid bird people living in the city of Aerie Shalan, they are one of the artificially engineered races native to Pangea, the region of Antarctica where the Savage Land is situated. Buth and his wife Delphine were long time allies of Ka-Zar and Shanna the She-Devil. He helped the two humans on many adventures, such as battling the Pterons, fighting the giant griffin and travelling to Belasco's Inferno Kingdon to defeat his plans and his deamon creatures. Buth has not been seen since Terminus destroyed the alien machinery which kept the Antarctic cold from overwhelming Pangea, and was presumed to have died with the rest of the Aerians of Aerie Shalan. Though it has since been revealed that some Aerians still survive, it is unclear whether Buth is one of them.
