1. Hord lived centuries before the Golden Age of the Sith, shortly after Ajunta Pall's time.
2. Aloysius Kallig was his rival, not his apprentice.
3. It's heavily suggested in a discussion with Talos Drellik that the Tomb of Naga Sadow was built on top of Khem's stasis chamber.
1. That's more or less what I'm suggesting.
2. He was both.
3. This is logical, but not explicit.
My entire spiel is about Tulak Hord being a terribly handled new character to the mythos. It's actually apparent in retrospect that KotOR has a lot of problems with established EU canon, considering the Great Sith War predates the first game by perhaps 40 years, and yet has PT style aesthetics all throughout, the use of 'Darth' as a Sith title, modern looking lightsabers, a relative lack of Jedi battle armor, PT era morals and rules for the Jedi, and so on. It's a bit of a side tangent to go that far, but the point remains: Tulak Hord is a canon mess.

This has nothing to do with Tulak Hord's Force mastery and lightsabre mastery.

He was not really an apprentice. After he defeated Khem Val, Tulak took him as a fifth wheel.
