Kashyyyk clarion

The Kashyyykk clarion, or Wookiee Clarion, was a type of musical horn created by the Wookiee species of the planet Kashyyyk from the horn of a bantha, bronzium, wroshyr wood, and cerulean gemstones. The clarions were used to summon Wookiees to gatherings in times of peace and acted as an alarm in times of war, and they were also considered a piece of cultural art. By 232 BBY, the pirate Blackbolt had stolen a Kashyyyk clarion from the planet Tenoo and stored it in his treasure hoard on the cruiser Terror of Tenoo. A clarion was also part of the treasure stored in Tanglevine Base on Tenoo and the hoard of the pirates known as the Ganguls in Yarrum Tower on the planet Yarrum.

During the Clone Wars in 19 BBY, a clarion was sounded to summon Wookiees to defend the city Kachirho against the droid armies of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In 5 BBY, a Kashyyyk clarion thought to have been made by the Porr'trrr tribe was displayed in the human antique dealer Luthen Rael's gallery on the planet Coruscant.
