Cooper told SCI FI Wire, the news website of broadcasters Sci Fi Channel, that the ninth season would introduce new villains and take the show in a new direction. \u201cWhile we say new direction&#8230;the concept of the series is very much pulled from the mythology of SG-1, and I think fans are going to be very excited about the direction we\u2019re going. One of the things we\u2019re going to be exploring in season nine is the origin of the Ancients and the Gatebuilders. And it\u2019s something I know fans have been sort of very curious about, and have sort of asked to see. And that is &#8230; one of the things we\u2019re really going to be delving into&#8230;Who the Ancients really are, and where they came from, and we may even get a chance to go there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now Stargate SG-1 Solutions is hearing from its sources that the writers will be incorporating classic \u2013 and eternally popular &#8211; Arthurian legend into Stargate&#8217;s rich mythology.   As well as introducing new enemies, Season 9 will explore the fascinating myths of Camelot, Avalon and Excalibur within Stargate&#8217;s distinctive universe.<\/p>\n<p>The key to this incredible new direction for the show?<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Merlin was an Ancient!<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>And the questions Stargate SG-1&#8217;s resourceful, mythology-hungry fans are sure to be asking themselves?   Merlin&#8217;s magical powers rooted in Ancient technology?   Arthur being able to draw the sword from the stone because he possessed the Ancient gene? Excalibur a powerful Ancient weapon?   Camelot and Avalon worlds SG-1 will journey to?   Oma Desala as the Lady Of The Lake?
