At some point before 32 BBY,[2] a lightsaber was constructed and was used by Jedi Master Adi Gallia, a member of the Jedi Order.[1] Powered by a kyber crystal,[3] it was destroyed during a mission[1] by 32 BBY.[2] Afterward, Gallia began using a new lightsaber.[1]

As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the film to 32 BBY, the lightsaber must have been created before 32 BBY, and it was destroyed by that year.
