A '''keep''' is the ancestral home of a [[Sangheili]] clan. | A '''keep''' is the ancestral home of a [[Sangheili]] clan.<ref name="ref1">'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''pages 88-89''</ref> Though each clan has one, keeps differ greatly based on their role and the position of their inhabitants. The master of a keep is known as an [[elder]]. A typical Sangheili state may contain multiple smaller keeps, governed by a single keep headed by a [[kaidon]]. The kaidon's keep serves as an assembly house where the elders from the client keeps convene to decide on matters concerning their state.<ref name="glass2">'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 94''</ref> | ||

A residence for Sangheili that have returned from battles to mate and raise/train their young, the keep has many common rooms for the average inhabitants, but the [[kaidon]] resides in a larger room for his higher status. It is believed that every keep has dozens of guards for the kaidon's safety, although the kaidon usually removes threats himself to show his battle prowess and that he is a capable leader, for it is believed that a kaidon should be chosen for his skill in battle. | A residence for Sangheili that have returned from battles to mate and raise/train their young, the keep has many common rooms for the average inhabitants, but the [[kaidon]] resides in a larger room for his higher status.

The kaidon will most likely not construct his own keep but either takes a rival keep or have architects construct a new one, although it is not ideal to construct a new keep because of the general cost, time, and manpower.{{Citation needed}} The keep will usually be moderately populated more so by family members, relatives of the kaidons, and his council. Other Sangheili would be chosen for their abilities to train the young, general maintenance, horticulture,and their skill at meal preparation. It is a very slim chance that other species may inhabit the keep for any role. | The kaidon will most likely not construct his own keep but either takes a rival keep or have architects construct a new one, although it is not ideal to construct a new keep because of the general cost, time, and manpower.{{Citation needed}} The keep will usually be moderately populated more so by family members, relatives of the kaidons, and his council.
