These small luminescent markers are theorized to be for guiding persons around while on one of the [[Halo]]s. The original designers are the only ones who know their true purpose. There appear to be a number of different colors, including red, blue, and purple.


A single red marker is located on a tree at the ending of the level [[343 Guilty Spark (level)|343 Guilty Spark]] in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]]. It is noteworthy because Forerunner design rarely directly incorporates organic materials into it's architecture. This also indicates that that particular tree was around when [[Installation 04]] was created, suggesting an extremely long lifespan and slow growth pattern of the trees found in that level.
Covenant work lights are small silver colored lights that are found on the ground during many Halo levels, most notably 343 Guilty Spark and Truth and Reconciliation. At first glance, it would seem that these lights are of Forerunner origin due to their placement and appearance. However, this is disproved by the fact that in Halo: The Flood the author stated that they were the Covenant work lights. They are placed at areas of high priority or low light conditions, such as a swamp or a desert at night.They are rectangular in shape, project white light, often placed along walls, and point upward.  




==Trivia==
The [[Covenant]]-oriented lighters ''may'' have been reverse-engineered from the Forerunner ones, given because the Covenant copy and imitate rather than innovate and create.

Light Markers are apparently simple illuminatory devices mass produced by the Forerunner and used on their various installations.

Covenant work lights are small silver colored lights that are found on the ground during many Halo levels, most notably 343 Guilty Spark and Truth and Reconciliation. At first glance, it would seem that these lights are of Forerunner origin due to their placement and appearance. However, this is disproved by the fact that in Halo: The Flood the author stated that they were the Covenant work lights. They are placed at areas of high priority or low light conditions, such as a swamp or a desert at night.They are rectangular in shape, project white light, often placed along walls, and point upward.
