Time-Traveling Trando twinsHey. I Finally completed my essential Star wars guides collections and I noticed something odd. the Barabel section in the new essential guide to Alien Spieces says that they were discovered after Revenge of the Sith by Imperial Safaris however, the origonal the Hoole recording part of them was an old republic security record dealing with dugs. whicth one is correct?

According to Wookieepedia (which, in my experience, is usually correct), both pieces are part of Barabel history.
| Quote: | According to Barabel legend, a small group of Jedi, led by the Ithorian Noga-ta, came to Barab I circa 900 BBY. Noga-ta helped settle the civil war that had plagued Barabel society for thousands of years. Consequently, the Barabels held Jedi in high esteem and would accept a Jedi's judgment in any dispute.
After this contact with the Jedi, the Barabels had little contact with offworlders for centuries. Soon after the rise of the Galactic Empire, Planetary Safaris began organizing hunting trips to Barab I, with the quarry being the Barabels themselves. After a few Barabels were killed, a Barabel leader named Shaka-ka organized groups of her fellow hunters into armies which overwhelmed the safari ships. When an Imperial investigation led by Captain Osted Alater revealed that the Barabels were sentient, the safaris were ended. Shaka-ka formed an alliance with Imperial Governor Paro Lanto and had the spaceport city of Alater-ka built. Some Barabels began to go offworld, working as mercenaries and bounty hunters. |
I suspect this is a similar position as to what happened to the Mon Calamari.
| Quote: | | Later, an Imperial sentientologist named Obo Rin working under the direction of Darth Vader wrote the Catalog of Intelligent Life in the Galaxy, Revised Edition. In an attempt to discredit the Mon Calamari, this work included falsified claims that the first contact between the Mon Calamari and galactic civilization occurred during the reign of the Galactic Empire. This was accepted as truth by many citizens of the Empire, further angering the Mon Calamari. |

However they are saying this as though they were apart of the old republic. if a lone jedi came to Barab 1 then they would not be on a security record
