"I have been studying the Tuskens for some time now, and I have discovered they have some items, that they seem to feel are quite mystical. I would like to study these items."
Srimaur, to a spacer[1]

The Krayt head was one of three important relics kept by the Tusken Raiders in their relic cave. The head was from a krayt dragon, and seemed to somehow be preserved. It was extravagantly displayed as a shrine within the cave.

The head and two other relics were stolen by a spacer sometime after the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY. They were delivered to scholar Srimaur in the city of Mos Espa for study, but the theft enraged the Tuskens. In retribution, the Tusken King led an army of Sand People to invade Mos Espa.

Behind the scenes[]

The Krayt head appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[2] The Krayt head was added to the game along with the "Tusken Army" Heroic Encounter,[1] introduced with the release of the "Chapter 7" update, on November 1, 2007.[3]
