Only two known reliquary's are known. The first was likely the planet where the [[Sangheili]] and [[San 'Shyuum]] encountered each other, a world in [[Sangheili]] territory with [[Forerunner]] relics.<ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', pg. 147</ref> The second was the human-colonised world of [[Harvest]], which was glassed by the [[Covenant]] believing the [[humans]] had destroyed or stolen the relics present, leading to the [[Human-Covenant War]].

Both the [[San 'Shyuum]] homeworld and the [[Sangheili]] homeworld of [[Sanghelios]] were Reliquaries, with their [[Forerunner]] Artifacts jump starting both their religious and [[Technological Achievement Tiers|technological]] progress.
