Talk:Human-Forerunner wars

I think that was last straw beacuse they discibe it as the last straw in the book takeing the world that the other species were resettle by the forrunner on that was the last straw

The repeat offender (who followed us from the old Halopedia, by the way) has had his ban (which should have been two years) extended to 3.5 years. The anon is completely retarded and insistent on getting his incorrect, poorly-written points across. He is done.  Smoke Sound off! 05:12, 16 February 2011 (EST)

First recorded war...
It says that it is the first recorded war in human history....wouldn't the first be the Human-San 'Shyuum war?

A change of dates
I've been looking over Halo Silentium, and I think the dates for the Human-Forerunner War are off. To start, the war ended around 110,000 BCE

''I was not always called Lifeshaper. That title came to me just before I walked among the defeated humans at Charuk Hakkor, in the company of the Didact, ten thousand years ago - Halo Silentium'' page 31

Now, it is clear that the Human-Forerunner War started before 110,050 BCE, as noted in Halo Cryptum.

...and fought for fifty years against repeated Forerunner assaults... - Halo Cryptum page 118

However, Halo Primordium makes this claim:

We defended Charum Hakkor against the Forerunner assaults - which came in an unending sequence, on after another - for three years. - Halo Primordium page 239

However, looking over this next quote:

Forty years before the last of the Human-Forerunner Wars, it was Yprin Yprikushma who had been summoned to the murky boundaries of the galaxy...And it was Yprin who had excavated that planetoid, found the Primordial... - Halo Primordium pages 236-237

This shows that the Primordial was found and brought back to Charum Hakkor about 40 years before the end of the war, with the great sacrifice of Humans to stop the Flood not long after that.

Now, looking over these two quotes:

''And yet - it was Yprin who prepared our forces for combat with the far more advanced Forerunner. And she who encouraged our scientists and robotic intelligences to take what we learned in our early conflicts with the Forerunners, anticipating their technology, an thus making so many technological advances. - Halo Primordium'' page 238

''But within decades, the situation changed. Humans surged back. - Halo Silentium'' page 36 And they seem to be referencing the same Human resurgence.

Given all this, I would wager that the Human-Forerunner War was no more than 50 years long. Maybe a little longer, but not by much. Toa Freak (talk) 17:36, 15 July 2013 (EDT)
