    It's possible the PLAGUE killed the MW ancients long before the PG Ancients came back. I don't recall there really being reference as to when the plague hit. It's likely that in the Millions of years that they were seperated, they probably called each other every now and then. Fully powered city and a fully powered Outpost, both being the only way to contact each other in their respective galaxies (assuming other gates in the MW also can't dial Pegasus, though based on what we know about the MW games, the DHD technology is probably different).

      The plague killed them after they returned from Pegasus. From season 6's Full Circle:
      "It says that a plague hit the Ancients near the apex of their civilization and some learned to Ascend and the rest died off." Not word for word but close.

        I'm sorry that wrong. They left for the Pegasus Galaxy because of the plague. When they returned to Earth, their were only a small number of Ancients left who died out or ascended

          I noticed this too.

          There are several possibility:
          * Plothole
          * Some Ancients were left behind, but I doubt this because, hello, plague (Ayiana only survived because she got frozen and, hey, the Ancients died out in the Milky Way) and the two factions communicated with each other throughout the ages.
          * After the development of drones, some Ancients returned prematurely to the Milky Way to settle
          * 10,000 years ago, not all Ancients simply led quiet lives or Ascended, some actually continued their work (like Janus) and thus, we have drones in the Milky Way.

            You don't start technology small and enlarge it. It's always the other way around. Start with something on a big scale, and then as tech advances, you shrink it down.

                Something from TPTB:

                Prior of the Ori writes: “McKay said that the planet was where they first developed Drone technology, does this mean they never had it back in the Milky Way?”

                Answer: No, that was an oversight. The drone technology was developed in the Milky Way, but the mini-drone version was perfected in Pegasus.
