[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] [QUOTE]Anyway - going backwards a simple explanation for the Horus and Anubis guards. 1. Horus or Heru'ur was the son of Ra and Hathor. I presume that Ra AND Heru'ur would have Horus guards as their 'guards'.[/QUOTE]As I recall it is specifically mentioned by Teal'c that the Horus guards are the guards for Ra's royal family, presumably this included Hathor and any of Ra's other offspring. [QUOTE] Now.. as far as the helmets we saw in the movie, they weren't all Horus guard helmets were they? I assumed that was because, when the movie was made, the different Jaffa that Ra had working for him was supposed to be where all the different Egyptian gods came from, right? There were no other Go'auld at that point... so Ra was Ra...and the Jaffa with the helmets were Horus and Anubis and whoever else the Egyptians believed in... yes? [/QUOTE]To my knowledge that wasn't exactly what the Movie makers intended because if you have the DVD with the deleted scenes you'll know that they originally filmed two scenes that portrayed a pair of fossilised Horus and Anubis Guards. The guards were apparently sent through the Stargate from Abydos after it was sealed, materialising them within solid rock (this was before the use of the iris changed the physics involved slightly). They were seen once in Egypt after they raised the gate and once in the mountain complex when O'Neal (Russell) visits them just before going on the mission. While it's certainly possible that new masks could be made and that who ever Ra chose to wear the masks would be considered that god by the Abydonians (remember how surprised they were by Anubis's human face?) it should be noted that the guards weren't meant to be "actual" gods like Ra but his god-like servants. Not that it has much bearing on the discussion but I don't think that Ra was ever supposed to appear in that movie and that originally that young man was just a human that the real Ra (a proper alien) took and kept alive to rule in his stead. The bit about the parasite needing a host was made up at the last minute by giggling around some dialogue. Which also means that the Jaffa were also meant to be pouch-less humans who were raised in Ra's court (ever wonder what all those kids were for?). [/QB][/QUOTE]
