'''Xenoarchaeology''' is a form of archaeology concerned with the study of the physical remains of past—though not necessarily extinct—alien cultures. The [[UNSC]] is known to have practiced xenoarchaeology on various worlds occupied by the [[Forerunner]]s in the past, such as [[Onyx]], [[Heian]], and [[Reach]]. Many of these sites were classified top-secret by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. After the [[Human-Covenant War]], many researchers in the universities of [[University of Edinburgh|Edinburgh]] and [[University of Calcutta|Calcutta]] were hired by the ONI to investigate Forerunner relics.<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions]]''', "[[From the Office of Dr. William Arthur Iqbal]]", ''page 519''</ref> | '''Xenoarchaeology''' is a form of archaeology concerned with the study of the physical remains of past—though not necessarily extinct—alien cultures.
