Demon
Bune is a demon listed in demonological grimoires such the Lesser Key of Solomon[note 1][1] (including Thomas Rudd's version, as Bime)[2] Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum,[note 2][3] Jacques Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal,[4] and the Livre des Esperitz.[note 3][5]
All of these texts describe Bune as a duke who is able to move the dead, make one rich, and answer a variety of questions.[1][2][3][4][5] The Livre des Esperitz claims that Bune rules 35 legions of spirits,[5] while the other texts only give him 30 legions to command.[1][2][3][4] The other texts further describe Bune's appearance as a three headed dragon (with one head being human) and give him the additional powers of making devils gather around graves and making one wise and charismatic.[1][2][3][4]
Practicing occultist Carroll "Poke" Runyon suggests that the name ultimately derives from Buto (a title for Isis),[6] as part of an overall claim that the Lesser Key of Solomon was by Solomon and rooted in Mesopotamian mythology.
According to Rudd, Bune is opposed by the Shemhamphorasch angel Haaiah.
