Both the pre-Crisis Earth-Two and post-''[[InfiniteCrisis IC]]'' Earth-2 Carter Hall created or discovered Nth metal on his own, since Paran Katar (and Thanagar) doesn't seem to exist in those universes. Though, in ancient Egypt, based on ''Hawkworld Annual'' #2, Horus the Hawkgod gave the gift of Nth metal to Prince Khufu in the form of a meteor.

In PostCrisis comics, it was hinted that Katar Hol was named after Carter Hall. Makes sense, since his father Paran Katar knew him on Earth. So its possible that Paran was close friends with Shayera Thal's parents, and named their daughter after Carter's wife Shiera.

* Or probably New Thanagar. Or they might live in the Netherworld in [[TheWindyCity Chicago]], or with the Underworlders in [[Comicbook/{{Superman}} Metropolis]].

He's an alien that has the reincarnated soul of the terran Egyptian pharaoh. The Thanagarians used to have a relationship with the primitive humans similar to that of the Go'uld from {{Stargate SG-1}} and all the magic parts of his origin are really just sufficiently advanced technology.

The post-''[[InfiniteCrisis IC]]'' Earth-2 Carter Hall created or discovered Nth metal without help from Paran Katar who doesn't exist in that universe. Instead, Horus the Hawkgod gave it to Prince Khufu in ancient Egypt. This is based on ''Hawkworld Annual'' #2.

** This could happen in the comics too, Thanagar has a relationship with ancient Egypt (and possibly other terran civilizations) after one of their ships crash landed there. Prince Khufu helped form that relationship. With his death, Thanagar sever their ties with Earth and has been forgotten (except to a few groups, including the Talon of Truth).
*** I thought a couple Thanagarians went to ancient Egypt, where they were considered gods or what have you, given status as pharaohs, then their reincarnations remained on Earth. Or is that just the DCAU version?
**** Just the DCAU version. [[@/TitoMosquito This troper]] once thought in the comics the human pharaohs found a crashed Thanagarian spaceship which vaporized them and their souls were sent to Thanagar where they are reincarnated as the alien cops.
