Latiums

The **Latiums** are the first evolution of Humans in the Universe. They would eventually become the Ancients.

## About

**Latium** is the term used by the Obrecone and the Tau'ri for the first evolution of humans in Universe. This however is not their actual name, which has been lost to all time. They are the direct ancestors of the Ancients, Alterans, Ori, Lanteans, Kaliam and Obrecone. They progressed from an average grade 1 civilization to a very contentious grade 8 civilization.

## History

### Rise of the Latiums

The direct evolutionary lineage of the first humans emerged between 256 Million Years Ago and 247 Million Years Ago. The Earth during this time was transitioning from the Permian (298.9 MYA-251.902 MYA) to the Triassic Period (251.902 MYA-201.300 MYA). After emerging as a distinct species 247 MYA they quickly out compete and out breed their brother and cousin species over the course of 0.6 million years. Then having become the apex species on their planet, they stay this way for 2.5 million years, unable to advance beyond being a Grade 1 hunter-gatherer civilization. Using friction, heat and accidental fires in order to cook meat, then after 200.000 years they discover and master fire and start to progress towards an agriculture society that is concerned with the cultivation of plants and the keeping of animals in pens. For 400.000 years they seem to be stuck as a Grade 2 civilization.

Then 243.9 MYA a rapid global change happens to their species and within a timespan of 500 years they progress from a grade 1 to a grade 4 civilization.

Brother Celcur

Homily:

The Floating God smiles upon you Sargeroth. May his words of love be carried on my voice. The voice is an interesting thing! It allows us to speak to each other. When enough people speak to each other, (gesture to the city), This is what you can achieve. We, the citizens of Sargeroth have done great things, yet terrible as well. We call each other our enemies instead of speaking words of peace and prosperity. How can we expect to achieve what we all want if we do not treat each other with the respect we would have given unto ourselves.

The Floating God above can do incredible things as well. Indeed, we see what he can do every day the coin is passed, the word is spoken. Every beautiful day with its dazzling light. We turn to our God above for guidance all the days of our life and I am no exception. I pray and meditate daily on the words of our dear Brother Zwickel and I revel in victories of our Pontifex Clovis. It is their shoulders upon which I now stand and I mean to intercede on our behalf to the Floating Sphere which surrounds our world. But this would be folly if not for one thing. One thing only divides us from the horrors of war and want and it is not my voice alone.

My voice may be that of the Pontifex but the voice which the Floating God most desires to hear is your own. Our faith separates us from desolation but when our faith weakens, so does our voice to our God. If he is to impart his blessing, it must be to us all and thus we all raise our voices, seek his guidance in our lives and join together as the faithful who reap the bounty of our Lord's blessing.

Do not mistake me however dear Sargeroth. The path to peace and prosperity is difficult, but with the the eyes of the Floating God upon us, he will lead us through. If only we act as brother and sister, disregard jealousy and float above our malice. For these things are pleasing to our Lord.

In all triumphs, in all defeats, in all plenty and in all thin, we the faithful float above.

(Gestures to crowd)
Sargerothian Currency

Sargerithian Currency has changed little over the eras. However, a basic breakdown of the City's currency is explained here.

## Early Barter System

From the beginning of Sargeroth's history, a Barter system of economics was used. Most Sargerithians could create or forage items worthy of trade. As soon as precious gems and metals were found however, the system quickly adjusted to create a balanced economic system.

## Gold Standardization

House Blumen, the ruling family of Greater Sargeroth wanted to create a system which could allow the exchange of goods without having to trade anything necessarily of value in return. Seeing how coveted gold was becoming in the city, the Blumens began accumulating a large amount of ore in preparation for their venture.

After a few years of bolstering the value of gold (which was is not actually very rare at all) the Blumens began paying their servants and soldiers in what they called "Schmeckles". They were simply pressed nuggets of gold with the Blumen insignia on them. Soon the other major houses began making schmeckles of their own.

Within a decade, the Royal Houses had cemented gold as the new standard currency for the City. It occurred with virtually no resistance from the population who were salivating at the thought of owning gold themselves.

This basic system lasted without major change for over 1,000 years until the 3rd era when Iron coins were institutionalized.
Grand Council of the Sargeroth Union

This council consisted of 5 members who oversee all of Policy in Sargeroth after Lord Clovis's death. The council was in power Succeeding the death of Lord of Affairs, Clovis and lasted until the Union Accords of 16.1.31when it was dissolved and replaced with the United Sargeroth legislature headed by newly elected officials.

The Council met many times throughout its existence of a little more than 2 years. The members of this counsel were very busy working to cement their power as well as create legislation which would get them reelected. Unfortunately, this regime did not make it to its first round of reelections before The War of the Counsels broke out.

## Organization of Council

The 5 council members are listed as:

Lucious Kessel - Lord of Affairs

Jaryll Blumen - Grand Councilor of Communications

Melfred Nathair- Grand Magister

Dutch Flannigan- Executor of Commerce

Newt- Lord High Commander of the Sargeroth Military

## Dissolution of the Grand Council

After maintaining peace for a little over 2 years, insurrection was rumored to be fomented by the Lord High Commander. The other members of the council moved quickly to round up soldiers and supplies as an attack seemed imminent.

The last meeting of the grand Council was not attended by the Lord High Commander; a sure sign to the other members that he indeed planned to overthrow the government. The resulting war crushed any dreams of the Council reaching its fullest potential. Several weeks later, after the war had ended, per the Union Accords, the Grand Council was dissolved and replaced with the Council of 5 under the new United Sargeroth regime with Lord High Commander Knewt sitting atop the powerful military structure which was the true seat of authority.
Pontifex

The title of Pontifex is reserved for those serving as pontiff of the Floating Church.

The Pontifex serves until they resign, either by choice or in death.

To date, only four individuals have held this position.

## PONTIFICES of the FLOATING CHURCH

### VEROTH SCHOSEN

Once a destitute lumber worker living in a dingy Cliffside hovel, Veroth Schosen's life took a drastic turn when he met Brother Zwickel, who was visiting Sargeroth in the late First Era to spread Floatism. Attracted to Zwickel's ideas of floating above life's woes, Schosen retired from his woodcutting days and went on to establish what would later be known as the Floating Church, serving as its first Pontifex.

### GEDRIC THIERRY

Formerly a cobbler from the outskirts of Nadir's Square, Gedric Thierry was known for his charity, often giving away his wares to low-class families. He was still a young man when Brother Zwickel arrived to share the concepts of Floatism. Thierry followed the example of Veroth Schosen and lived within the Floating Sanctuary as a devoted student alongside those who would later become the first monks of the Floating Order of Clerics.

After Brother Zwickel's departure, Thierry supported would-be Pontifex Veroth in establishing the Floating Church. Thierry succeeded Veroth Schosen as second Pontifex of the Floating Church after Schosen's willing resignation due to extreme old age, serving as pontiff for six years before dying of sudden heart failure.

Manors Enterprises

Created between Lady Dunbar, Heath Manors and Silas Shandell, United Sargeroth Enterprises is an establishment (Most Commonly referred to as Manors Enterprises) that would create artificial competition between a new construction and interior design organization and the Chalice company. The organization is headed by the Chief Director of Commissions, Heath Manors. Silas Shandel is be Executive Architect. Lady Isur, of Isur's textiles is Head of Design.

Although on the surface it would seem as though this new organization, "United Sargeroth Enterprises", would be competing directly with the Chalice company, a backdoor deal, which has just recently come to light, was made between the at the time head of the Chalice Company Dr. RH Roblaw and these 3 Business leaders; Silas Shandel in particular who was an employee of the Chalice company at the time.

All contracts completed and paid to USE would be subject to commission which is directed to the Chalice company. The remainder of the profit would be split between the 3 aforementioned people and eventually trickle down to their employees.

The most heinous part of the scandal is that the two companies would appear to compete and yet employee the same individuals who as far as they knew, were continuing to work for the same company. Manor's enterprises also employed its own workforce over time though even these workers would be subject to any Chalice Company project which needed more help.

## Manor's Involvment

Heath Manors is a reclusive type. His two long term associates
The City of Sargeroth

The City of Sargeroth the physical metropolis which rests upon the Sacred Mountain. Although the Server is referred to as Sargeroth, this only really refers to the City itself, as outside the walls, the world is not much explored and as yet mostly unnamed.

The city is split into many different districts and even more hamlets and neighborhoods. Although pictures of the city from the minecraft server offer a picture into the world, the scale can sometimes be lost, as it should be understood, the city itself is enormous and home to as of E3 year 25, over 160,000 people, a population which has doubled in those 25 years. It is the largest concentration of people in thousands of cubits and contains a diverse and, at times, a rather cut throat society. Pictures of the city itself as well as many other locations can be viewed from the gallery on the main Sargeroth Wikia page.

Different houses built and later laid claim to many different portions of the city. One spot in particular is of significant importance as far as location.

## The Neutral Zone

A strip of land, 170 cubits by 60 cubits, exists upon an upper plateau of the Sacred Mountain. This plateau leads to the Kessel Quarter, which descends (and suspends abve) the cliffs adjacent to the Northern Ridge. This plateau it was decided would not be built upon by Baraldi and his clan, nor the Kessels which bordered them. This neutral zone was kept as an act of good faith to ensure their two tribes did not get into disputes over land ownership. This delineation seems to have been effective for over a thousand years as the city first took shape.

Sargeroth Cuisine

Sargeroth cuisine has obviously evolved over the eras and not much is known about the earliest cuisines. However, there are many traditional foods which have survived the many years due to their simplicity and popularity. These old recipes have been overshadowed by newer dishes though as new ingredients became available and cooks became more and more tenacious in their endeavors to fulfill the discriminating palettes of their employers.

## 1st Era

### Sargerithian "Porrige"

A favorite for those with few teeth and/or schmeckles. It consists primarily of wheat seeds, pounded to dust and reconstituted in a mixture based of water. The mix consists, again, primarily of water, but mixed with fat or butter and a mix of seasoning. It can be prepared both sweet or savory, making it ubiquitous at inns and taverns. Enough ground wheat must be used to get the porrige into a thick paste but not too thick. 1 horn of water and 2 handfuls of wheat dust should bring the proper consistency.

### Peeled Steak

The Kessels' cornering of the beef market led to many interesting culinary experiments. The most long-lived creation, a delicacy of the upper crust, is a steak, prepared in such a way that few are known for upholding the high standard.

One steak, no less that half a cubit (1.5 feet) preferably cut from the flank of the animal. The cut must be as thick as your wrist, thicker is fine. The cut must be first set in a briny marinade of spices for half a day. Then rock must be prepared.

A large flat rock must be put upon a very hot fire, hot enough to cause water to scream on its surface. Then, 4 pads of Kessel heavy butter is spread upon the rock, fully coating it. Make sure to not lose one drop over the edges. Finally, the steak is laid upon the rock to set on each side (reapplying butter as necessary) for 4 Minutes. You know that the steak is done when the outside skin is black and charred.

Now prepare the Craftsman axe. Making sure to sharpen both sides evenly.
Druidology Wikia

## Welcome to the Druidology Wikia

**Druidology** (Druidism) is a site to inform those who want to practice or understand Druidism and understand some of the ideas within the Druid community.

Druidism has many different offshoots and is an umbrella term for many different practices many of which has fostered their own sub-groups. Here the focus is on terms and deities unique to Druidism.

This is not to tell those who seek the Druid path what to practice but to inform them of the traditional and non-traditional rituals, practices and ethos which they hold.

## Describe your topic

This wiki is about looking at key concepts used in the Druidic-experience and some of the philosophies held by them. Some are new concepts while others come from the distant past which, given the oral tradition of the Druids, are not always clear or straight forwards. Here we will look at the origin (or possible origins) of these concepts along with how they are used and applied by modern Druids.

This is to inform those who want to know more about what druids/druidist's do and some key concepts they hold.

However the trade didn't go as planned and Abu left empty handed then Colonel Jack O'Neill traded his gun for Captain Carter. Meanwhile it turned out that the chief's daughter Nya escaped and now after being recaptured was sentenced to death.

Ceremonial Horus

The **Ceremonial Horus** was Abydonian who was the leader of the Horus Guard serving under Ra when he visited Abydos for the final time.

## About

He was born on Abydos and conscripted into the service of the Supreme System Lord Ra to serve as one of his Horus Guards.

## Initial Contact

By arriving on Abydos, the team of Colonel Jack O'Neill alerted the Goa'uld Supreme System Lord Ra to their presence who went to investigate taking his royal Cheops class warship to the planet along with his Child Slaves and Ceremonial Guards.

## History

### 1995

He arrived on Abydos with Ra in his Cheops class warship. He was on guard in the Temple of Ra when Colonel Jack O'Neill, Dr. Daniel Jackson, Lt. Charles Kawalsky and Lt. Brown returned. He, Anubis and Horus Guard 2 captured O'Neill and Jackson and brought them before Ra. Ra ordered him to remove his helmet and reveal his face. O'Neill managed to get Anubis' Staff weapon and killed Horus Guard 2, but he shot and killed Jackson. Ra was shielded by the children that followed him and Anubis hit O'Neill from behind but was ordered not to kill him by Ra.

After Ra resurrected Jackson in his Sarcophagus, Ra forced Jackson to execute his friends publicly, but a group of young Abydonians, led by Skaara and Sha're, having learned their history from Jackson, rebelled and created a distraction, allowing Jackson to shoot at Ra and escape with the team. He and another Horus Guard pursued them and shot at them but they escaped on a Mastadge. They are brought before Ra and questioned about their failure. Ra kills the other Horus Guard with his Kara'kesh.

Following this, he continued to enforce Ra's will at the Naquadah mine and approached the disguised Tau'ri before being shot by O'Neill. His helmet was then removed and it was revealed to the Abydonians they are Human.

Colonel

**Colonel** is a commissioned rank in the United States Air Force one must be promoted to.

## About

A colonel in the U.S. Air Force is the highest field grade officer rank and right under the general officer ranks. It is equivalent to the rank of captain in the Navy and Coast Guard. (Not to be confused with the O-3 captain rank in the Air Force.)

A colonel is an elite commander in the air force, he or she has proven themselves in the areas of strategic thinking, technical expertise, bravery, grace under pressure, heroism and and good leadership. They are the senior officials in charge and are generally part of the staff department.

## Duties

Colonels are usually group or wing commanders. They are also the vice-commanders as well for those respective positions. Most continental U.S. air force bases usually have a colonel in charge of the base and colonels in charge of the groups within a base. This is a little different in overseas bases. A typical wing may consist between 1,000 to 4,000 airmen but it is not uncommon to have many more airmen. Colonels can also be found at the numbered-air force staff organizations.

Most colonels are career officers and have demonstrated a high aptitude for leadership over the span of their careers. Colonels will spend a majority of their time addressing the operations and support for their base. They are responsible for the overall livelihood and condition of the services and facilities at the base. Colonels who are group commanders will assume total responsibility for the operations of the group. While most of this seems administrative, colonels spend a majority of the time making decisions that will affect the overall mission of the base.

Colonels can also be in charge of training schools such as ROTC or any of the military colleges. Similarly, colonels are expected to hold post-graduate credentials or be working towards one. Many colonels will attend Air War College at some time in rank.

## Promotion

Promotion to colonel is governed by Department of Defense policies derived from the Defense Officer Personnel Management Act (DOPMA) of 1980 for officers in the Active Component and its companion Reserve Officer Personnel Management Act (ROPMA) for officers in the Reserve Component (e.g., Reserve and National Guard). DOPMA guidelines suggest 50% of lieutenant colonels should be promoted to colonel after serving a minimum of three years at their present rank and after attaining 21–23 years of cumulative commissioned service.

## Demotion and Dismissal

Any superior officer may demote them for insubordination. Dismissal from service only happens to those that commit severe crimes while in service, a court martial is required for this.

## People Who Held This Rank

* Jack O'Neill
* Samantha Carter
Michael Swope

Depository of Ra

**Founded In** | 4520 BCE

**Depository of Ra** is the only palace on the planet of Abydos.

## Appearance

The Depository of Ra is the name of a building nearby the Temple of Ra which held the Stargate. The buildings wall was decorated with thousand of Stargate addresses written down into Egyptian Code. With each Egyptian Hieroglyph represent one of the Stargate's Glyphs. The center of the room is adorned by an eye of Ra Cartouche. There were also multiple Horus Guard statues lining the wall.

## Geography

The Depository of Ra is located on a 15 minute walk from the Temple of Ra it was partially hidden underneath the sand, barely visible to the naked eye, the only reason Dr. Daniel Jackson found it was because of the sun shining upon the blue of the entrance door and it reflecting on his glasses.

## History

Construction of the Depository started in secret in 4520 BCE, when the depository was completed 40 years later in 4480 BCE all those who worked on it were killed by Ra.

It was then found by Dr. Daniel Jackson in 1995 when the blue of the door reflected upon his glasses. He then went inside finding the DHD which he had then moved into the Temple of Ra.

He brought Colonel Jack O'Neill, Captain Samantha Carter and Major Charles Kawalsky on 20 October 1997 in order to explain to them the existence of the Stargate Network.

The depository was destroyed along with the rest of the planet in 2003 when Anubis blew it up.

## Ecology

The Temple could house about 400 people, even though nobody lived there or knew about it until, Dr. Daniel Jackson found it in 1995.

## Culture

As a hidden feature of Abydos, there was no knowledge or culture surrounding it.

**Major** is a commissioned rank in the United States Air Force one must be promoted to. It is the first senior rank in the Air Force.

## About

A major in the U.S. Air Force is the lowest field grade officer rank. It is the fourth lowest officer rank and is equivalent to the rank of lieutenant commander in the Navy and Coast Guard. Majors, unlike captains, typically signify a change in duties and responsibilities within a unit.

## Duties

Upon promotion from captain to major, an officer is expected to become more involved on the administrative side of the squadron and wing level. Majors will have typically duties as a senior staff officer in the unit and will work directly for a commander. Majors in flying units may also be flight commanders or director of operations (DO). In non-flying units such as maintenance or logistics, majors can also be squadron commanders. There are a couple of non-conventional jobs for majors as well. For units such as NORAD or the Pentagon, where the average rank is considerably higher than a typical squadron, majors may find themselves at the bottom of the officer corps. In these instances, a major may find him or herself fulfilling roles similar to a lieutenant.

A major typically has duties as a senior staff officer at the squadron and wing level. In flying squadrons majors are generally flight commanders or assistant directors of operations. In the mission support and maintenance groups majors may occasionally be squadron commanders. In the medical corps, a major may be the head of a clinic or flight squad.

Majors are expected to be the senior leaders that young lieutenants and captains can rely on for guidance and instruction. They are more involved with staff roles and functions. Many majors will also serve as an intermediary between the young officers and the upper brass. Majors are also expected to be working towards a masters degree or higher.

## Promotion

Promotion to major is governed by Department of Defense policies derived from the Defense Officer Personnel Management Act of 1980. DOPMA guidelines suggest 80% of captains should be promoted to major after serving a minimum of three years at their present rank and after nine to eleven service years in total.

## Demotion and Dismissal

Any superior officer may demote them for insubordination. Dismissal from service only happens to those that commit severe crimes (dishonorable discharge) while in service, a court martial is required for this.

After Ra resurrected Jackson in his Sarcophagus, Ra forced Jackson to execute his friends publicly, but a group of young Abydonians, led by Skaara and Sha're, having learned their history from Jackson, rebelled and created a distraction, allowing Jackson to shoot at Ra and escape with the team. He ordered his Horus Guard to attack the crowd and kill the team but they were unsuccessful.

Lieutenant Colonel

**Lieutenant Colonel** is a commissioned rank in the United States Air Force one must be promoted to.

## About

A lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force is the middle field grade officer rank. It is one of the central officer ranks and is equivalent to the rank of commander in the Navy and Coast Guard. Lieutenant colonels are usually near the end of their military career or twenty-year mark.

## Duties

A lieutenant colonel is generally a squadron commander in the operations group, mission support group, or maintenance groups, or a squadron commander or division chief in a medical group. They may also serve as a Deputy Commander for Operations (DO) in a squadron in the operations group prior to assuming command of their own squadron (this is common for aeronautically rated officers in flying units), or as a deputy commander of a squadron in the maintenance, mission support or medical groups. Lieutenant colonels may also serve on general staffs and may be the heads of some wing staff departments. Senior lieutenant colonels occasionally serve as group commanders, most commonly in units of the Air Force Reserve Command or the Air National Guard.

As its name suggests, lieutenant colonels are basically a colonel's assistant and the duties reflect that analogy. Lieutenant colonels are very involved in command roles and preparing for wing level command positions in the future. Majors and senior captains are expected to report directly to and receive guidance from the lieutenant colonel

## Promotion

Promotion to lieutenant colonel is governed by Department of Defense policies derived from the Defense Officer Personnel Management Act (DOPMA) of 1980 for officers in the Active Component and its companion Reserve Officer Personnel Management Act (ROPMA) for officers in the Reserve Component (e.g., Reserve and National Guard). DOPMA guidelines suggest 70% of majors should be promoted to lieutenant colonel after serving a minimum of three years at their present rank and after attaining 15–17 years of cumulative commissioned service.

## Demotion and Dismissal

Any superior officer may demote them for insubordination. Dismissal from service only happens to those that commit severe crimes while in service, a court martial is required for this.

Abydosian Resistance

The **Abydosian Resistance** were the natives of Abydos whom with the aid of the Tau'ri rebelled against Ra in 1995.

## About

The Abydonian Resistance was a group of initially only Abydonians youths who wanted to overthrow the false god Ra with the help of the Tau'ri team that arrived on the planet. They were later joined by almost the entirety of the population of Abydos.

## Leaders

* Skaara
* Dr. Daniel Jackson
* Sha're
* Colonel Jack O'Neill
* Kasuf

## History

The Abydonians Resistance was started when Ra attacked the city of Nagada with two Death Glider's killing hundreds for the mere offense of receiving the Tau'ri among them. Then when Dr. Daniel Jackson was forced to kill his remaining team mates, the youth of Abydos under leadership of Skaara helped Dr. Jackson fight Ra's Guards and escape with his fellow team members. They then sought shelter in the Caves of Kaleemah were the spend the night deciding what to do. It was here that Dr. Jackson told them of Ra's plan to send the Nulcear Warhead Colonel Jack O'Neill brought with him back to earth with a deposit of Naquadah in order to blow up the Earth. They then devise a ruse to infiltrate the Temple of Ra by pretending to be offering up a deposit of Naquadah the team + a few Abydonians get into the temple in order to fight him. They find the warhead in front of the Stargate ready to be send to Earth. Meanwhile outside the rest of the Abydonians are about to be run over, when Kasuf arrives with the other Abydonians and turns the tide. Back inside Colonel Jack O'Neill tries to disarm the warhead but it has been tampered with so he instead sends it up to Ra's starship with the Transportation Rings inside the temple. When this happened Ra was about to fire upon the planet to destroy it, instead he and his ship was blown up  Ending his reign and the need for the resistance.
Caves of Kaleemah

**Founded In** | N/A

The **Caves of Kaleemah** are primary cave system on Abydos.

## Geography

The caves are located at a long 4 hours walking distance from the Temple of Ra.

## History

These caves formed naturally in the long distant past and were discovered by the Abydonians nearly a thousand years after they came here in 3632 BCE.

Some outcasts have lived in these caves but generally they were unused forgotten and empty, only after the Abydosian Resistance needed a place to hide out in 1995 did the cave become a point of significance, they were later used in 2003 by Kasuf and the women and children to hide from the attack of Anubis, who destroyed them along with the rest of the planet when he blew it up.

## Ecology

Though generally empty they were spacious enough for a 1000 people and several braziers.

## Culture

The caves hold cultural significance since the moment they were used in 1995 as a hide out for the Abydosian Resistance.
