text: We don't know that only the facilities were destroyed, we only know that the facilities were destroyed. The distinction is subtle but important. We can't say "Anubis destroyed Abydos" unless we somehow know that Anubis really did destroy Abydos, but all we saw in the show was the pyramid blowing up and Skaara explaining afterward that he and his people had died. That's evidence of just two things: the pyramid blew up and Skaara died. If you know of some other source that says otherwise, please do mention it; I've been removing "Abydos was destroyed" from various Stargate articles for a while now on this basis and I'd like to know if I'm missing something important.

message: The Abydonians remark that "husbands don't do this work", they make no reference to gender roles in any way (Also, though my memory isn't perfectly clear, I think many of the men were working alongside him).  It might be that this is a job usually reserved for children (By "children" I simply mean those who haven't reached the adult tradition of marriage), it might be that servants are expected to be celibate, maybe it really is a gender role thing; my point is that we don't know.

message: Maby I missed this in the series but how is Abydos the closest plantet to Earth in the Stargate network and it is in the Kaliam (sp?) galaxy.  Wasn't there a big deal in the series about needing a monsterous amount of power to dial intergalactly.  There have been many episodes where there were plaets only few hundred lightyears away and we have dialed to those.  Or would it just be a technicality saying that in Sub-Space, it is the closest planet and that distances in normal space don't necessisarailly matter as much?
in the film the planet is located in the Kaliam galaxy, that's one of the differences between the movie and the series. in this article, we follow the series... Maartentje 18:47, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

message: In the article it states "Since the rebellion on Earth, Ra outlawed all reading and writing, so no one can learn the truth." Perhaps we should elaborate on what the "truth" is (what happened in Giza). --68.238.147.123 03:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
