In reality, there were dozens of different species of upright ape-men, and among them was a species of human that lived on the Indonesian island of Flores. They were called -blam!- floresiensis. They were around three feet tall or shorter, and although they had a small brain, the morphology of their brain allowed them to be fairly intelligent and they created stone tools. Although it was originally assumed they speciated from -blam!- erectus, the primitive morphology of their wrist indicates that they evolved from an earlier hominin, maybe -blam!- habilis or an even earlier animal, like one of the Australopithecines. Within the Halo universe, the fiction goes that the Forerunners devolved the ancient human empire into multiple different species, a preventive act to keep them from unifying and rising up again. Riser is a hamamune, or Florian, or -blam!- floresiensis.
Very good analysis, but I also find it hilarious that the B-net turns h o m o into -blam!-.
Yeah, their censor is pretty bad.
