Trivia
The natives of P3X-513 with beehive shaped mud helmets are possibly descendants of the Asaro of Papua New Guinea.

Goofs
Daniel says of the biblical Abraham that he was "believed to be the father of man." This is incorrect; Abraham was the father of the nation of Israel, not the entire human race. With Daniel's knowledge of ancient civilizations, he should know better than to make this mistake.

Quotes
Daniel Jackson: This tastes like chicken.
Sam Carter: So what's wrong with it?
Daniel Jackson: It's macaroni and cheese.

I'm a god to these people

A scorched faced god, forced labor, and an even more forced backstory for Carter. The storyline was interesting though it never bodes well when the scientists have to say "this doesn't make sense" in order to cover plot holes.
