- "Jova said it was good to see me in one piece, particularly since he and the others had wagered that my bones would be joining those of my ancestors."
- ―Wilhuff Tarkin
Bones were white,[2] rigid tissues that made up the internal skeletal structure of certain lifeforms,[3] including humans,[4] Mirialans,[5] Iktotchi,[6] Twi'leks,[7] Feeorin,[8] Lasat,[9] and krayt dragons.[10] By contrast, the skeleton of the Gungans was made of cartilaginous material rather than bone.[3]
In humanoids, the bone on each side of the face below the eye, forming the prominence of the cheek, was called the zygoma.[11]
The Nightsisters of Dathomir notably used bones, along with tree branches and animal skins, to create the strange structures that stood in their graveyards.[12]
Some members of the criminal Kanjiklub gang incorporated pieces of bone into their jury-rigged blasters. Topboss Tasu Leech's Donderbus blaster had a handle made from a Kintan strider's ulna, while his "Huttsplitter" blaster rifle featured a gundark bone grip, and Crokind Shand's heavy bore rifle, included a roggwart bone butt. Famed pirate Captain Sidon Ithano proudly captured a rifle from another Kanjiklubber, which had a bone butt as well.[13]
Some types of food contained bones; when Peli Motto instructed her pit droids to fetch food for Grogu, she asked them to get something with bones in it.[14]
