Later in 19 BBY, the droid leader Grievous was killed by Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Kit Fisto during the final years of the Clone Wars. Mace Windu later returned to deal with more Separatists in 17 BBY. It was known for towns such as Mos Espa and Mos Eisely and attracted many space travelers and smugglers. Most of its inhabitants were Tusken Raiders and Jawas.
