Hello everyone.

In the Halo book 'The Flood' when the Master Chief is about to turn on the light bridge in the level 'Halo' it says that he finds the symbols on the control panel familiar. Now going back to the first Halo book, MC receives lots of teaching from the ai ‘Deja’ (I think) on various subjects, so maybe he has seen some old language on the control panel before (maybe relating to that post on the Egyptian pyramids??).

So this could mean a lot of things, for example that we were once a master civilization and were destroyed by a Halo? and had to start for scratch.


or not lol..

The Human-Forerunner theory is one of the most widely-accepted Halo theories. Surprise. Surprise.

He's comparing the symbols against Incan writings.

In any event, it's not just the Chief but Cortana, Fred and Kelly who've all felt the same familiarity.

On top of that, 343 claims human history and is the Forerunner's lost history. Still, he's insane so he could be "confused".

I've noticed that threads that ask to be a sticky- never become one. That and repeated threads are almost never stickied either.

lol. give up already chaplain. you will get a sticky when the mods want to give you one, which is not gunna be anytime soon. and also, about the graphics, there is an easy way to disprove that. "you speak english. then you see soanish writing. you dont speak spanish, but some of the words/symbols are familiar, just because you know english"!!!
Covenant writing is also familiar to The MC, so are we releated to the covies??? I KNOW, maybe us humans, the Covies, flood, are all offspring of the forerunner, we just happened to morph different!!! OMG, IT'S MY BROTHER!!! COME HERE YOU LITTLE GRUNT YOU.
