The ''' | The '''human-Flood war''' was a major conflict fought between [[Prehistoric human civilization|ancient humans]] and the nascent [[The Flood|Flood]]. It took place concurrently with the [[Human-Forerunner wars]], and was one of its primary causes.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 185''</ref> The war destroyed several human-populated systems and cost more than a third of humanity's population. Also, it destroyed hundreds of worlds and was one of the reasons that forced humanity into war with the Forerunners and also contributed to their defeat. | ||
