The Glyph
Contents |

This is the first glyph that appeared. It has the full circular shape.

| Appeared in the mass email sent out by Microsoft. | AdjutantReflex's second avatar. | Found in a Circuit City ad. | Found in a latin american magazine Halo 3 ad. | Seen at the end of the Halo 3 comic | Evidence of the Ancients on the SOTA website. | Gamerpic awarded to those who unlocked Server 01 | Image posted with recent FCC ads |
Symbol (upper right)
This is the 2nd glyph that appeared. There is one arch missing from the upper right quadrant, and the circle in the center has moved to the new outcrop which was before shorter and within the outer boundary.

| From an image of Master Chief, found on the reflection on his visor. | The glyph that is on the back of Server 01. | The glyph in the faint background when choosing location in Server 01. |
Symbol (upper left)
This is the 3rd glyph that appeared. There is one arch missing from the upper left quadrant, and the circle in the center is still outside the boundary.
|
| Found on StarImage1.jpg. |
Symbol (locked, hollow)
This is the 4th glyph that appeared, found on args.bungie.org, in a new cardboard promo for Halo 3.
- Very similar to the 'locked' version above, but it has no center circle/dot
|
| Found on a cardboard ad. |
Other Glyphs
- Several known Forerunner symbols exist. Information about them can be found here.
Theories
Moon Phases
- Sparked by a post from Foz, a theory came about that the glyph may be representative of lunar phases.
- June 14th, AdjutantReflex indicated it 'had begun' - a new moon.
- June 21st, Server 01 opened - first quarter
- June 30th - full/blue moon
- July 7th - last quarter
- July 14th - new moon
- Some clips from the Server 01 video seem to depict the moon, and the beam projected from the Ark may be aimed towards the moon (but that's a guess)
- The Forerunner installation on earth may be a gateway... or the moon may be a Key of some kind... the theory being that a connection would be made between the Forerunner installation and the moon when a specific alignment is met - shown by the glyph, moon phases.
- At each of those Glyph phases, we may be able to expect a revelation.
- The glyph could therefore be viewed as a countdown - not just a numeric server counter, but an actual 5 step countdown to a larger event.
