The Shavadai (meaning "People of the steppe") are a human ethnic tribe probably descendant of the Earth Mongol tribe of Shagatai, living on planet Simarka.

Overview

The Shavadai are a tribe of humans who have been taken by the Goa'uld (called "demons" by them) as slaves at least 900 years ago on Simarka. Probably descendants of the Earth Mongol tribe of the Shagatai, they kept their way of life typically of the steppe nomad, especially the way they considered women. In a large majority, men are polygamists and women are mostly like merchandise. They cannot speak until they're allowed to, cannot get out without wearing a veal on their face. If they don't observe the ancestral ways, they are sentenced to death at once (SG1: "Emancipation")
