| | '''Xenoarchaeology''' is a form of archaeology concerned with the physical remains of past (but not necessarily extinct) alien cultures. The [[UNSC]] is known to have practiced Xenoarchaeology on various worlds occupied by the [[Forerunner]]s in the past, such as [[Onyx]]. Known practitioners of xenoarchaeology include Dr. [[William Arthur Iqbal]] and [[Esko Korpijaakko]]. After the [[Human-Covenant War]], many researchers in the universities of [[University of Edinburgh|Edinburgh]] and [[University of Calcutta|Calcutta]] were hired by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to investigate Forerunner relics.<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''' - ''[[From the Office of Dr. William Arthur Iqbal]]'', page 519</ref> |

| '''Xenoarchaeology''' is a form of archaeology concerned with the study of the physical remains of past—though not necessarily extinct—alien cultures. The [[UNSC]] is known to have practiced xenoarchaeology on various worlds occupied by the [[Forerunner]]s in the past, such as [[Onyx]], [[Heian]], and [[Reach]]. Many of these sites were classified top-secret by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. After the [[Human-Covenant War]], many researchers in the universities of [[University of Edinburgh|Edinburgh]] and [[University of Calcutta|Calcutta]] were hired by the ONI to investigate Forerunner relics.<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions]]''', "[[From the Office of Dr. William Arthur Iqbal]]", ''page 519''</ref> | |

| Known practitioners of xenoarchaeology include Dr. [[William Arthur Iqbal]], [[Esko Korpijaakko]], [[Laszlo Sorvad]], [[Luther Mann]], and [[Sandra Tillson]]. There are only a handful of experts in the field of xenoarchaeology, most of whom are recruited by ONI.<ref name="h4evg15">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 15''</ref>
