This thread contains spoilers, I just note incase.
Currently there are several threads dealing with this or a similar question, but most of them have gotten into an unrealistic realm.
Here is what we do know:
1)Stargates built by Ancients
2)Atlantis was on earth but left for another galaxy (pegasus)
3)from prime ape to common form took us 3 million years (anthropology fact)
4)Antarctic Stargate Presumed oldest in (OUR!!!!) galaxy
So going back in time from present:
We began our evolution to common form 3 million years ago, the ancients encouraged our evolution to the form we know appear. The ancients however left Earth between 5-10 million years ago. So they are atleast 10 million years old, but that's when they left. Before that they were in this galaxy. As much as 50 million years ago the Antarctic Gate was constructed, thus the Ancients are AT LEAST 50 million years old (that's ancient). But they must be at least 3 million years older then that. They had to evolve from something a process which takes time.
So If they built the Antarctic Stargate at the same point in their evolution as we are now, then from their genesis they are 53 million years old. But this itself poses a major problem, what walked the earth 65 million years ago. Until 65 Million years ago Dinosaurs ruled our world and I doubt the writers woudl try and deny that part of earth history. 12 million years after the extinction of the Dinosaurs the world was in an infant state no species could have evolved to the point of the Ancients, the Ancients then aren't native to earth, and if they are then we are extremely EXTREMELY different. (Unless they are evolved dinosaurs but that is to extreme to accept, as well as rediculous)
