During the time of the Galactic Empire's reign, Reginald Danfillo, a senior terrain trekker, unearthed fragments of Quesoth pottery at the Typhojem Excavation site. This site was located on Pashvi, a planet situated in Wild Space. Danfillo documented these pottery pieces in the Smuggler's Guide, a book he discovered at the very same excavation.
Within the present Star Wars canon, the reference book Star Wars: Smuggler's Guide, penned by Daniel Wallace and launched in 2018, included the Quesoth pottery. This book expanded on the Star Wars Legends continuity's mention of the sentient Quesoth species. The species was initially presented in Timothy Zahn's novel, Choices of One, which was released on July 19, 2011. The species then fully emerged in the novella Crisis of Faith, which Zahn also authored. It was published on September 6 of that same year, as a component of the 20th Anniversary Edition of Zahn's 1991 novel Heir to the Empire.
