There is one flaw in this theory.... the Pyramids of giza all point to diffrent starts on orions belt why would 3 Halos be so close together?

there not close together at all. it just looks like that fom earth. Look in the sky and see how some are dimmer and others are brighter that means they are farther away. they are not right next to each other.

Oh yes that is very true and the light that see is still traveling from Point A to Point B so they star might actually be gone.

It's called Declination if your look at a striaght line then move over 1 degree walk for 100 meters you will be off by 1 meter

No imagine having one pyramid as the "straight line" while having another one about say 10 degrees north, now walk say 100,000 meters (10 kilometer) would will be 1000 meters off from the other pyramids "striaght line"... timestake 1,000 kilomers you'll be off by 100,00 meters (or again 10 kilometers)

I hope that puts everything in perspective

Great topic guys.
In regards to the pyramids pointing to the same place:
They may have pointed to the halo facilities when they were built (ancient times) but because of cosmic drift, the objects may have moved. Cortana brings this issue up in the Fall of Reach novel at the end when she uses the coordinates from the rock to jump to Halo (she has to modify them to account for drift).

Also, the ancient egyptian link could be very probable for a couple of reasons:
1) There is a wallpaper in the Halo 1 section of the bungie site called "Ancient Halo" or something?

2) IN the books, the Master Chief recognises the symbols on the forerunner facilities and covenant items, but can't recall exactly were from. He just knows how to use them. They could be based on ancient hyreoglyphics (glyphs) which the MC and the other Spartans would have studied with Deja (FoR Book).

Anyway, keep up the good work, and we will all find out on November 9th.

I can'y really give an opinion as i haven't read the books(i'm going to hell!), but i'll try to keep up.

As far as anything egyptian, all you have to do is look at the halo2 logo it looks like a hygrolyth(sorry, bad spelling).

Very good deecee the lot of us have been talking about exactly what you just said. Nother possibility is that the Forerunner weren't called Forerunnre for nothing... perhaps they built the pyramids there knowing that several thousand years later, we (or the Covenant) would use them to find what they were leading us to... I really think we may be on to something, especailly the hieroglyphs

Another little tidbit (more of a cooincedence), each of the pyramids had exactly 52 degree angles. And we all know very well that Bungies favourite number is 7, and what is 5+2... 7 folks... weird aint it...
Another more on topic question, the evidence of Forerunner creating pyramids is supported with the fact that the angles were so percise. Exactly 52 degrees...

Thank you all who are contributing, its a real help and opens up many new doors.

Shifty

Well you like the post.. and all but all you gotta do to get in is elaborate on something we've already said to look all smarts lol

  • 07.03.2004 9:38 PM PDT

"The way of the warrior is the path of shadow. The gift of the warrior is to percieve that which cannot be seen. The spirit of the warrior is to strike in a single moment. The destiny of the warrior is balance in all things. And when balance is lost... all that is left is the reckoning."

Maybe the moon might have something to do with the Forerunners, this is because it is in the exact place that helped create life on Earth, i doubt it is a coincidence. And Bungie has said that we fight on the Moon, why wouldn't the Covenant just glass the Moon? Unless it has something to do Thoth, the Egyptian moon god, who might really be based on a Forerunner that met with the Egyptians. Another part of theory is the fact that maybe all of the Egyptian gods are based on a Forerunner group that met with the Egyptians when their religion was just starting out. I know it is reaching but it could be true.

Edit: Thoth (Khonsm, Yah) also turned into the god of wisdom hardly a coincidence ther if my theory is right.

In my history book it says"The Egyptians believed that gods ruled the sun, the moon, the sky, and the earth". Theres also a mention of paradise(the next world) perhaps maybe thats what the forerunners are trying to bring us to, somewhere in space...

....Am on the list now?.

Oh...I dunno maybe ;) But something just occured to me that the egyptians believed there were 13 steps in life and the 13th was the final one.. after life.. But we have yet to find anything on that but I will leave you guys with that...

Im not sure if 13 has much to do with what we're discussing, unless...in FS, it said in the prologue, "Ninth Age of Reclamation" does that mean that this war has happened nine times before? And maybe if it happens four more times the 13th will be th last? But I think we should look into this reclamation thing somemore, it always had nagged at me...

Ok heres what I dug up about the Forerunner and there place of eternal life...

The number thirteen is usually taken as an omen of misfortune, but can also be lucky. Egyptians believed that the thirteenth step of their symbolic life-ladder led to eternal life. They didn't look at death as the end of life, but instead as a transformation.

And here is a few more things...

The Egyptians represented the earth as a four-sided house where three gods lived. This added to equal seven which they therefore considered lucky

And the last thing...

There is a pyramid with thirteen steps
