And if you think about it... Nobody knows how the pyramids were built... It seemed impossible for the ancient Egyptians time! So, even though I didn't come up with the pyramid theory, I was a witness to it, and I added the "points to the stars" thing. And, by the way, earlier I posted something about how Earth may be a storage planet for the Flood, maybe they are hidden under the pyramids.

Yes it is pretty much impossible it is theorized that from the tools they found the egyptains had where impossible to carve such things I mean they only used wooden tools.

Edit: lol thats funny Red hey do you have aim or just MS and Yahoo cause I am on AIm right now.

This may be a little too far fetched but what if the pyramids could be used together to create a weapon more powerful than Halo(s).

Cool cow you are a genius for thinking of the pyramids... and it immediately made me think of how scientists say they point to stars. And with the Flood coming back... maybe they are hidden there. BY FAR MY FAVORITE THEORY.

well halo wasnt a weapon, more of a fail safe in case the flood get out of hand. which would bring up the possibility of two rings. what if one got too infected to even get in there to set off, theyd need a back up one, a second ring... or something like a second ring. and maybe the map to it is on earth, maybe even hidden in the pyramids, like someone (sorry fogot your name) pointed out earlier.

I just sent this theory to bungie.org and gave em a link to this thread. Here is what I wrote:
This is a theory about the Forerunners. OK, we all know of the strange symbols the books talk about all the time, and we all know how Halo 2 is taking place in Africa. Now what is there in Africa that we can connect with strange symbols? Egypt (Hieroglyphics being the strange symbols)! And what are in Egypt that are very famous? Pyramids! Now, aren't historians at a loss as to how pyramids were built, because even now it would take a lot of work (and time) to build something like that? And they were created thousands of years ago! Maybe they are works of the Forerunners. Now, I also remember reading somewhere how pyramids point to certain stars. Maybe they point to Halos or other Forerunner facilities! And, now, going for the more far - fetched and less supported theory, maybe Earth is used as a storage planet for the Flood, and they remain hidden under the pyramids! Now, the Covenant don't know this, but they could recognize pyramids as Forerunner facilities. Which means that they would not glass Earth, but rather invade it, take what they find out of the pyramids, and then glass it! But, when they find the Flood, they are scared and run off, and we are left to deal with them, while still looking for a way to destroy the Covenant! So, what do you think? This by the way was discussed at the Bungie Forums, and can be reached here (I'm DualWieldinFreak, but it was mainly Cool_Cow and RedLeader's idea ).

The cove are trying to get to the pyrmyds to locate the forunners finds so they can find out where all the halo(s) are then they will use them against use destroy all liveing planets but theres...becasue if they jsut wanted to destroy man kind they would save a lot of work and glass the planet...and i think the phophets can read the hyrogryphics and the engineers will reapair broken panels that the hyrogryphics are on.

In the e3 2004 demo one of the guys said that zanzibar is 20 clicks north of the covies primary point of incursion(An aggressive entrance into foreign territory; a raid or invasion) i looked at map and that spot is Dar es Salaam(Which is arabic for "haven of peace") a city in Tanzania. dont believe me watch the demo and look at a map.

when did joe say that? e3 2004?

Even if its not a major part of the story, i wouldnt see why joe didnt make a connection between the pyramids and the forerunners. another thing i just remember, one of the egyptian symbols is a upside down v shape, with a small circle over it. circle been a ring, like halo? and the upside down v been a pyramid perhaps? maybe jo and jason etc used this?
