[QUOTE="Ei, post: 1659935, member: 10247"] Ok, here is my theory. As we all know from SG-1, the ancients are dying off from the plaque, so they came to the new galaxy to spread the seed of humans around. So as far as we know, there could only be a dozen or so of ancients. So they dumped many proto humans into many new planets and let evolution do the rest(So those humans are about as advanced as the earth counterpart) Then they discover the wraith, and since the Ancients thought that the galaxy has no other life, they probably didn't bring any big guns (so to speak), that combined with the fact they are overconfident and vastly outnumbered (millions against a dozen), they had to retreat to their homebase, which is Atlantis. The wraith can't take on Atlantis, so they settled with eating the proto humans instead. The ancients of course just slowly died off from the plaque. There, plot holes solved. But seriously though, those wraith are really, really pathetic. Even their regenerative power is not all that great. A ghould in an Ums host can probably do a lot better, not to mention a lot more deadlier. The only thing that got going for them is the creepiness factor. PS, to answer the question, ancients are lot more advanced than normal humans. For one, knowing their knowledge wouldn’t kill them. Unlike normal humans where the head would eventually explode. :p [/QUOTE]
