Right... so here it goes. Since we all learned of the Ancients and more of the history of earth and the Stargate, everybody has tried to come up with a timeline on what events happened and in what order.
I have seen some very good theories and interesting timelines but still a lot is speculation, so what we have to do is keep track of the facts. The main problem with a proper timeline is that the writers didn't have one in mind when writing stories. For example when solitudes was written (the one when we found out about a second gate on earth) they didn't have Atlantis in mind, at the time they hadn't even come up with the concept of the ancients we know now. So a lot of the gaps in the timeline can be blamed on the writers but they have tried to fix the problem...

**I'm going to talk about Moebius now but only about a small spoiler,
nothing major. But now is your chance to look away.**

In Moebius, Ra created the new timeline when he took away the Stargate... this stopped Sam and Daniel joining the SGC and Jack retiring and Teal'c not joining up with earth. So with that in mind alternate timeline Teal'c said earth was without a Stargate (because of what Ra did), which is, proof the Goa'uld never used the Stargate in Antarctica because from what Teal'c said they never knew about it. I have seen some timelines where people think the Antarctic gate was used after Egypt was buried. The Jaffa can be explained in the same way as Sam and Jack ended up there... an accident. And the cultures moved from earth after the gate was buried in Egypt were moved by ship.
Little things like this should be noted so that we can all try to come up with a complete and solid timeline even if the witers didn't make one!
