. . correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Lucas also use 'prominent' names/expressions for his 'bad guys' in Star Wars ?

The 'Sith' phenomenon could be a name allusion to 'Set' ( isn't there a 'satanic' organisation out there called 'The Temple Of Set' ? ) . .

Or even the names of existing tribes of 'darkies' as allusion for his Sith-phenomenon . .?

For example there is a Sith-tribe in his saga called the 'Massassi' . . maybe a name-allusion to the African tribe of the 'Maasai' ?

Anyway . . I think the basic concept which could be seen shining through Star Wars ( despite later being touched by political correctness ) is. . The 'good' guys = 'light'- figures ; the bad guys = swarthy , primitive savages . . .
