In the science fiction series Stargate SG-1, the Abydonians are a human civilization living on the planet Abydos (Stargate address: Image:StargateGlyph27.svgImage:StargateGlyph07.svgImage:StargateGlyph15.svgImage:StargateGlyph32.svgImage:StargateGlyph12.svgImage:StargateGlyph30.svg), a fictional world on which the film Stargate is set. Between the events of the film and television series Stargate SG-1, it was believed to be the only other planet the Stargate could dial to as the planet was closest to Earth in the Stargate network. According to the film, Abydos was located in the Kaliem galaxy, "on the far side of the known universe", but in the series it is the closest Stargate to Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy.
