A saga wall is a stone mural of chiseled poetic stanzas found in the keeps of Sangheili clans. A family's saga wall commemorates the historical actions, sacrifices and legacies of its family's members. Generally, a keep's poet is tasked with adding lines onto the family saga. Sangheili warriors strive to preserve the history of their lineage and the stories of their victories, so that they may be recited for generations to come. During the Battle of Alpha Halo, Zuka 'Zamamee told his Elites that their story would be added in saga walls if they were victorious in the battle for Alpha Base.[1]
