Amanaman

Amanaman was a male Amani headhunter from the planet Maridun who worked as a bounty hunter for the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure. After the smuggler Han Solo was frozen in carbonite in 3 ABY, Solo's friend Lando Calrissian met with Amanaman in Jabba's Palace on the desert world Tatooine and asked that the Amani alert him if the bounty hunter Boba Fett arrived at the palace, as Fett was tasked with transporting Solo to Jabba. After Solo was delivered and displayed on Jabba's wall, Amanaman stood near the smuggler in 4 ABY and laughed when Jabba declared he did not want to lose his favorite decoration after the Hutt listened to a message from the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker asking to bargain for Solo's freedom.

The headhunter then sat in one of the palace's booths during a performance by the Max Rebo Band which ended in the enslaved dancer Oola being dropped into Jabba's rancor pit and eaten. Princess Leia Organa, another of Solo's allies, then arrived in the throne room disguised as the bounty hunter Boushh and negotiated with Jabba over the bounty on the Wookiee Chewbacca. Later that night, Amanaman was part of a trap set for Organa, and hid behind a curtain while she freed Solo from carbonite. Jabba then revealed the trap and Organa and Solo were captured as Amanaman and others blocked their escape route.
