- "Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going."
- ―Luke Skywalker, to Obi-Wan Kenobi
Anchorhead was a small town on Tatooine. It offered connections to other cities on the planet, such as Mos Eisley. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Luke Skywalker offered to take Obi-Wan Kenobi there before making the decision to join him on his journey to Alderaan following the murder of his aunt and uncle at the hands of the Galactic Empire.[1] By the time of the Galactic Civil War, Tusken Raiders had gathered in large enough numbers to attack the outskirts of small towns such as Anchorhead.[2]
