In the [[Star Wars]] saga, the '''Sith Order''' is the main antagonist. Begun 6,900 years before the Battle of Yavin,<ref>http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith</ref> the Sith are the practicioners of the Dark Side of the Force. Marks of a Sith included large, full-body tattoos, and they usually carried [[red]] lightsabers. Notable Sith include [[Darth Vader]], [[Darth Tyrannus]] (aka Palpatine), Darth Bane (creator of the Rule of Two), and Darth Krayt (creator of the Rule of One).
"'''Sith'''" wasn't coined by [[George Lucas]]. It is used by [[Edgar Rice Burroughs]] to describe a large Wasp-like creature the size of a bull in the book the "[[Warlord of Mars]]". This term may have been picked up later by Lucas who was heavily influenced by early pulp melodramas such as Burroughs' Mars series.
