Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Ithorians were a mammalian herbivorous sentient species from the planet Ithor. They were commonly called "Hammerheads" by less sensitive beings because of their long, curving neck and T-shaped head. They found this nickname offensive.
