Atetu was a Jawa who lived on the planet Tatooine during the reign of the Galactic Empire. In 3 ABY, shortly before the rescue of the captive former smuggler Han Solo from the palace of the crime lord Jabba the Hutt, Atetu fellow Jawa Tweetu spent some time with the Jedi Luke Skywalker in a run-down Tatooine tavern.
