In ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', [[Catherine Halsey]] refers to conflicts "from [[Mars]] to the [[Jovian Moons Campaign|Jovian Moons]] to the Hydra System Massacres and on to the hundred brushfire wars in the [[Outer Colonies]]"<ref name="for2021"/>, implying that the massacres predate said wars; but this seems unlikely, as the Insurrection only began in the 2490s.

The Hydra System Massacres were a conflict that took in the early years of human spaceflight.[1] They most likely happened after the beginning of star colonization in 2362[2], but before the division of Inner and Outer Colonies was long established[3] and certainly before 2518.[4]
