After Apophis's defeat, the half-Ascended Goa'uld System Lord [[Anubis (Stargate)|Anubis]] ([[David Palffy]]) assumes the role of the primary antagonist of the show. This new villain possesses much of the knowledge of the Ancients and their technology. While Earth builds its first interstellar spaceship (the ''[[Prometheus (Stargate)|Prometheus]]'') in seasons [[Stargate SG-1 (season 6)|Season 6]] and [[Stargate SG-1 (season 7)|Season 7]], Anubis creates an army of almost invincible [[Kull Warrior]]s and wipes out or subordinates most of his adversaries amongst the System Lords. In the Season 7 finale ("[[Lost City (Stargate SG-1)|Lost City]]"), SG-1 discovers a powerful weapon in an Ancient outpost in Antarctica that annihilates Anubis's entire fleet and also sets the stage for the spin-off series ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]''. Ba'al subsumes much of Anubis's power in [[Stargate SG-1 (season 8)|Season 8]], while Anubis, who survived the destruction of his fleet in a disembodied form, quietly begins to re-assert his influence. Human-form Replicators begin to conquer the System Lords, but SG-1 finds and adjusts an Ancient weapon to destroy all Replicators throughout the galaxy. Near the end of Season 8 ("[[Threads (Stargate SG-1)|Threads]]"), it is revealed that the benevolent Ascended being [[Oma Desala]] ([[Mel Harris]]) is responsible for Anubis's original ascension. When she engages Anubis in an eternal stalemated battle on the Ascended plane to prevent his acting on the mortal plane, the Replicators and most System Lords have already been annihilated and the Jaffa win their freedom from Goa'uld rule.
