Wasn't Miranda/Johnson called a Reclaimer by Guilty Spark?

She was. Every human on Harvest was labeled a reclaimer.

Reclaimer = human.

No. All Humans are reclaimers.

All 24 billion of them.

This is right. There are many theories about the connection between Forerunners and Humans. One is that the humans became the inheritors of the Forerunner empire and technology because the Forerunners passed the Mantle of Guardianship down to humanity, as it was passed to them, presumably from the Precursors, and that the Forerunners re-encoded certain aspects of their technology (e.g. the Index) to only respond to human DNA. Therefore the Humans are Inheritors, reclaiming what should be theirs by birthright.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Every single human was considered a reclaimer.

"Time was your ally human. But now it has abandoned you. The Forerunners....have returned. And this tomb... is now yours". - The Didact

Master Chief and the SII's were full reclaimers..(read the bestiarium)

That explains why Chief and Fred remembered the Forerunner symbols from the past .

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Evey single human is a Reclaimer, albeit the Spartan-IIIs of Gamma Company who were classified an "aboriginal sub-species" because of the augmentation to their frontal lobe.

If I remember correctly, they remembered the symbols because they were the same or at least similar to signs used by Aztecs. Deja taught them about old cultures after all.

No when the chief remembered how to use the Forerunner controls on Halo,he said he remembered it from somewhere (he didn't mentioned the aztec sybols,Fred did)

Quite possibly genetic memory (see: Cryptum). This same sort of predisposition for understanding and interacting with Forerunner technology could be related to the genetic markers flagged by Dr. Halsey in her search for candidates in the Spartan-II project.

There's really no telling the lengths to which the Librarian could have gone in a quest for moral redemption.

This a thousand times.

And The meaning of reclaimer is equivocal. To be honest people are probably over analazing the context of the word.

I think they are meant to reclaim the worlds the flood and forerunners striped from ancient man and are thus reclaimers.

The whole idea with the mantle doesn't make sense because you can't reclaim something you never had, not to mention the mantle probably doesn't exist or is of forerunner creation.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

Don't just make a thread to make a thread. If you have a legitimate question or something to discuss about the storyline of Bungie's games, by all means go ahead. But if you are just doing it for some other reason stop.

Sorry for the implications of that statement.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I think this has more to do with his augmentations then anything else.

I know it's been said multiple times before but every human is a reclaimer because that is what the oracle aboard the forerunner dreadnaught called the glyphs upon Harvest which were the humans which is where the Minister of Fortitude (Prophet of Truth) had thought that the humans were forerunners because the oracle had also called them his creators which is why he sought to exterminate the human race because it was a threat to their religion because if they were forerunners they were still around and had not found the path to sentience as they thought and were less technologically advanced than the Covenant themselves.
