This is simply what I think, Don't get mad if you believe differently.
~EVIDENCE PROVIDED~
========================
The Human Forerunner Theory
========================
I believe that early human beings are the forerunner. As stated by 343 "Once the other follow suit this galaxy will be quite devoid of life.", "Why do you hesitate to do what you've already done", "Last time you asked me, If it were my choice, what would I do,Having had conisiderable time to ponder your query, My answer remains". Therefore a human being has been to Halo before, Could have possibly been the forerunner. But since they activated halo, They were whipped out, meaning no forerunner were left, nothing was left. So once again we evolved from prokarytics. And now the humans have sustained the technology the travel through space, and have discovered there former self. But have no record of there former technological boundries, so they think that the forerunner are aliens. But also we need to look at the definition for "Forerunner" "Forerunner -(fôr-run'ẽr) noun - 1. a person sent befroe or going before to announce or prepare the way for another or for something to follow; herald 2. a sign that tells or warns of something to follow; prognostic. 3 a) a predecessor. b) an ancestor" So Now we see that a forerunner doesn't mean that they MADE the place, just that they were there before you. So the forerunner infact were humans to humans! but to an elite it would be the first elite to reach halo. So the forerunner are merely a varible. Now go play halo and replace forerunner with Halo. So I guess humans have been to Halo before. Now we need to figure out why cortona says "You have no idea how this ring works, do you? Why the forerunners built it? " Well we have established that Forerunner means the ones before,and that humans have been to Halo before, So we have two(2) possiblities, Either the humans ARE the forerunner, or She is simply stating that anyone before the Cheif is considered Forerunner, Which means that to the Humans who landed on halo before the chief, the forerunner to THEM built it.
