Ancient Council

From SGCommand

The Ancient Council was the governing body of Atlantis and the Ancient Domain in the Pegasus galaxy. Composed of five Lanteans, they conducted the leadership of their people both on and off Atlantis. During the War with the Wraith, they sent a delegation to negotiate a truce, but they were attacked. To preserve the city, they sank Atlantis under the oceans of Lantea and ordered the Atlanteans to return to Earth. Moros was High Counselor and leader of the Council at this time.
