The reason that I worte that Ra used the gate first was because in the episode "Solitudes" of season one, when Jack and Sam are shot through the Stargate to a diffrent place than Teal'c and Daniel, they find a serpent Guard burried in the ice.

First of all, I too greatly enjoyed your synopsis of the history of pre-SG-1 world. As usual, you have done a very good job explaining things. However, Ra used Horus Guards, not Serpent Guards, so to assume that Ra used the antarctic gate because of the presence of a Serpent Guard is flawed. It is more likely that the Serpent Guard was transported through the Antarctic gate by accident, much like Carter and O'Neill, or by some coincidence of glacial shifting allowing the gate to be dialed after the Giza gate was buried or before the Giza gate was brought to Earth.
