I know Bungie has made a great maybe greatest sci-fi story of all time, but there are somethings on earth today that could fit with forunner things.
1. Ruins underwater off japan
A 10,000 (important date, Forunners may have died then) year old ruin is under water off coast of japan near an island. Alot of it is flat, smooth and sharp angles showing great skill, craftsman ship, and very un-primitive tech for the day. Its huge, like 2 football fields. It is obviously man made. But, its 10,000 years old!! The pyramids of giza were made in 3000 BC!! So a very big civilization in japan had existed before any other! And the ruins kinda reminds me of the ruins on Delta Halo. Its underwater because of the iceage long ago that melted away. Scientists have said that long ago we were hunter gatherers but what if we only just got ON earth then? We and the Forunners were on Earth, the Ark was activated in Africa and stuff.
Although it may or may not exist, Atlantis has promise as a Forunner city. And an American Prophet that was never wrong saw it in a trance.
2. Not related to title, but ok
Atlantis is a legend that is more likely than not (in halo) real and is a city on earth for the
forunners. A prophet (real person on earth, not alien) in US that went in trances to
phsycicly find cures for people, or give reading on the world. Every time he was correct, he
saw WWI and II he saw many other thing and he was never wrong. Once he had a trance and said Atlantians used crystal technology. Remember the crystals in the books? The time and space bending crystals. Well he said other things about Atlantis too. But knowing he is never wrong, is this his only exclusion? He also said uner the left paw of the sphynx is a chamber with a document on how to find antlantis. There is a chamber not opened yet, they should. So using this information when the halo bible was writen, they said hmm, Atlantis was said to use crystals, this fits forunners! Lets write it Frankie! i think they will reveil they are who made atlantis and many other revelations during H3.
(NOTE: The prophet i mentuned was born very early 1900s he was a strange kind and once found he can go into trances and say things for cure or anything else. He was always correct. He died in 1960s. Among other strange reading, Atlantis was one. THis is history.)
So we have lots of stuff on earth that may make this idea of Forunners cooler because a part deep in the back of your head you may say "Wow, could Bungie be hiding something from us? Are they real?" That makes a better story if stuff in real life can make it a little more real. There are lots of things on Earth making the story more fun. I'm not saying Atlantis exists or Forunners, but it's fun to think of it. Maybe by a different name they exist?? lol, i doubt it.
