Bacca's Ceremonial Blade was a sacred Wookiee sword, created by the legendary Wookiee warrior Bacca from the debris of the first starship to land, in this case crash, on Kashyyyk. Bacca passed on the sword to the next chieftain, as it had become the symbol of the strength and courage of the Wookiee chieftain. The sword was passed from generation to generation until the Chieftain Rothrrrawr. The blade was broken at the hilt when the Chieftain was fighting a terentatek in the Shadowlands. The blade became lodged in the beast's hide, and Rothrrawr fled with the hilt. The hilt was then on seen as a symbol of leadership, and was passed from chieftain to chieftain until Revan found the blade at the behest of Freyyr.
Revan offered it to the exile Freyyr in order to reclaim his throne from his usurper son, Chuundar. The two parts were reunited, but Freyyr delivered the sword to Zaalbar. It can be assumed after Revan's departure from known space, Zaalbar returned to his village and the sword continued to be passed down throughout the generations.
