From the Expanded Universe
In Mimban mythology, Pomojema was a minor god who acted as a healer. The priests of Pomojema were suspected of performing acts of healing enhanced by the use of the legendary Kaiburr crystal. Pomojema has been depicted as a vaguely humanoid being with leathery wings and enormous claws. His slanted face was a mass of tentacles beneath a pair of accusing eyes.
The Temple of Pomojema on Mimban was the fabled resting spot of the Kaiburr crystal. A monstrous pyramidal ziggurat, the building appeared to be made of cast iron, not volcanic rock. The building was old and decaying. The crystal was guarded by a hulking reptilian lizard-creature. The Temple of Pomojema was the site of Luke Skywalker's first duel with Darth Vader.
