Well, many believe the structure to be the ark. The ark is the activation point of all the Halo's simultaneously.

Now, how did the hole get there? Some believe it was the covenant that uncovered it whil digging, or that it was a complete accident.

But what if the big hole WAS new momabasa? We all know that a large explosion destroyed the entire city. an Explosion of that size must have left some mark on the Earth's surface. This hole could be that mark.

thoughts?

Read the WWU please:

Q: I'm guessing those ruins in the back are Old New Mombasa, so, whereabouts is the Chief and this Forerunner structure?

A: That is indeed the ruins of New Mombasa. The artifact and the Chief are where they appear to be, on the desert outskirts of New Mombasa, and many miles inland. The mountain behind him is Kilimanjaro.

I rekon that explosion thing is right. The trailer showed the ruins of Mombasa, that circle is part of a giant sign.

Sure the buildings are from new mombassa, but im talking about how the hole got there. They would still be there if the covenant had dug up the artifact. please read the entire post before posting something utterly stupid.

His post wasn't utterly stupid, and I don't even care for defending him, but it wasn't stupid. I do think that the hole from the trailor has got to be the BIGGEST SPHYNCTER EVER.

New Mombasa remains intact, as seen in the background during the activation of the "structure". If anyone recalls correctly Regret's cruiser enters slipspace directly over New Mombasa (remember it takes some buildings with it?). This leads to the conclusion that the "escavation" happened more recently than Regret's escape.

We'll just have to wait and see...
