History
Evolution
Stargate (1928/1995)
Not far from the Great Pyramids, an archeological digging is performed by a team led by Professor Langford. They discover a big circular artefact made of an unknown mineral quartz.
In 1995, Doctor Daniel Jackson, a young Egyptologist, states during a symposium on Ancient Egypt that the Pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty did not build the Pyramids. He is then mocked and rejected by his pairs.
"Moebius", Part 2 (2004)
Chased by Jaffa on Chulak, alternates Jack O'Neill, Samantha Carter and Teal'c fly over Chulak's sky inside a Jumper. They travel back 5,000 years ago and dial Earth's Stargate. On the other side, they discover the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx.
