The Cradle of Life is a story about a Tribal Elder. It takes place in Africa 100,000 years ago.
The comic tell the story of N'chala, wich is use to go every morning at the same spot in the plains, and watch something special. the comic imply that some "gods" ( Forerunner ?) are building a huge machine on the ground of this plain of Africa (Maybe this is the Ark).
We also know that the activation of the rings by the Forerunner
This activation is known to be the reason of the Forunners disparition. But according to Joe Staten Interview, one couldn't say that the forerunner vanished : Inscrutable alien beings with problematic ethics never die... they just fade away. We can only assume that he is trying to say that Forerunners are still alive.
Some speculations says that Forerunners are just human peoples. This could be true, but the Craddle of Life comic is a proof that humans and Forerunners wheren't at the same level of knowledge 100,years ago. So it is possible that Forerunner are not the same kind as Humans.
The other reason that could help us think that Forunner are not dead is the use of a Shield World to avoid the lethal action of Halo. Maybe few Forerunners made it to a Shield World like Onyx and, after the Halo activation, they went back to normal space and began a knew life, a new begining.
There is another reason who can lead us to think that Forerunners didn't disapeard 100,000 years ago. In the Halo: Ghosts of Onyx book, on page 237, it is said that the Engineers are also called "Huragok", and that the word "Huragok" is a Forerunner word : "Huragok: the Forerunner name for the Engineer race". It clearly implies that The Covenant (Or one race into The Covenant) is linked to the Forerunners close enought to know their language. We can also believe that The Covenant found out the translation of this word on some wall paintings in one of the several Forerunners constructs (Like Cortana did on Alpha Halo) but it still implies that the Forerunner knew the Engineers, met them and gave them names.
