PRIM'TAH

1. Goa'uld term for a larval Goa'uld symbiote.

2. The ceremony in which a young Jaffa, upon reaching the Age of Prata, is implanted with his or her first larval symbiote. The ceremony creates a pouch for the symbiote in the Jaffa's abdomen. Upon reaching this age, a Jaffa child's normal immune system begins to fail due to the Goa'uld's genetic manipulation of their race, and the child must take a symbiote in order to survive.
