Temple Island

Temple Island was a towering sea crag located in the northern latitudes of the planet Ahch-To. Chosen as the founding site of the Jedi Order about 6,000 years prior to the rise of the Galactic Empire, the Prime Jedi and his followers constructed a village, a library containing the sacred Jedi texts, and a temple at the island's summit that gave the island its name. Though they eventually departed the planet by the later centuries of the Old Republic, the island became mythologized as a site of legend and wonder through the eras of the Galactic Republic and Galactic Empire, notably among later members of the Jedi Order, and the native Vikings of the planet, who venerated the early Jedi as messengers of the Asgardian gods they worshipped. Aside from housing the ancient Jedi settlement, which were maintained by the indigenous Lanai Caretakers residing opposite the Temple, the island also provided habitation to their non-sapient porg relative species, which nested along its steep rocky slopes and cliffs.
