The Artifact is most likely the Arc. Since The Forerunners are Evolved Humans, They had activated all the halos before as said by the oracle in Halo 2. They activated it to destory all sentinent life and to clear all flood. The Forrunners made the flood. Or actually they made Gravemind, and Gravemind made the Infection forms of flood. After they made "Gravemind" they soon activated the halos from Earth, "The Arc"... This activation DEVOLVED the Forerunners and basically started mankind and here we are in the years of highly upgraded and more intelligized things after this big activation, The only survivor of this activation of all the rings is Gravemind, The one Forerunner that was tested on by other Forerunners that made a parasite (Flood). As it survived the activation, it created more infection forms of the parasite (Flood), The infection forms scattered everywhere and infected covenant and human. Here we are again, The covenant and Master Cheif on Earth (The Arc) Truth will probably use the arc to activate all the halos and everything will die except for the things on earth(The Arc[Since the arc is the one safe place from a halo activation]) And as I said it all started as the Forerunners made Gravemind which made infection forms to infect other forerunners, then Forerunners on Arc activated all the halos from the arc(Earth) Yes they survived but soon died out which was when they devolved and humans came along and now still in the same period, just several, several years ahead which is where were at now. {Bungie most likely uses the name of "The Arc" as the only safe place because of Noah and the Arc, it was the only safe place from the big storm, now the Arc in halo is Earth and its the safe place from the big galactic explosion that is capable from being done at earth] Will this happen again? If it does, With the humans devolve or evolve into the forerunners, We'll see what'll happen.... ----- Thats my thought for now

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.
----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

1) It's the ark

2) Halo is based upon naosha rk thus it is likely the ark is a ship

3) The ark remotely controls the other installations the artifact was shoot a beam of plasma into the air and sounded exactly like the scarab gun..

I believe the forerunner ship was a key that flew into that hole and the artifact is like a large scarab gun. It's going to end up firing towards the moon or a planet or something and will unveil the ark. As for the forerunners they stille xssit in another galaxy according to joseph staten. All life died with in 3 radii of the galatic center ( thus 50,000 light years outside our galaxy.). How did humanity and all other life survive? Noah recreated us threw copied Dna sequences stores in the library of the halos. Don't believe me? Go to the library forum (halo xbox forum) and look at the top image it will show you two defintions of a library the second goes right out and says this. Humans are not the forerunners.

one problem with the theroy how could the forerunners be evolved from humans if they came before us it is more likely that they activated the halos and destroyed the technology that is why are technology isnt as good

This is flawed a bit, the Forerunner found the Flood, they didn't create it.

This is one of the supidest theories I've ever heard. Not only did you spell Ark wrong 100+ times, but you basically took a bunch of other theories (that don't any make sense either) and put them all together to create an even more ludicrous theory. Honestly, does the Earth look like a technology that can communicate with the Halo's? I'm pretty sure you've seen the video, it's pretty obvious that the structure under the Earth's crust is the Ark. Although I do though think it's entirely possible that the Ark contains the DNA of millions of animals, if that is correct the Forerunners obviously chose Earth to house the Ark because life wouldn't have a hard time getting started here, unless the Halos kill off all the vegetation...

P.S. A species cannot "devolve" into a less advanced/intelligent organism.

My list of annoying bungie.net profiles (will be added to):

xborisx

Is it just me, or does the installation look alot like the rear of the Perilous Adytum ship. Perhaps it crash landed? That would explain a crater. Bungie only said it was Forerunner, not the Ark.

Another theory is its just a big holographic stand that shows Cortana. When it opens up, she could finally be in a solid transmission.

Yet another theory from my friend is its one of those buildings that charge the Halos, setting it to standby after 100000 years of dormancy
