So Brutes go investigate, as they start to kill people the nav points disappear. Meaning that the humans on Harvest are showing up as Forerunner artifacts because we are Reclaimers children of the Forerunner.

Basically the book "Contact Harvest" makes it out like Humans = Forerunner when in reality we are not Forerunner but there predecessors they left everything to us after they died in the first flood battle.
I really have no clue what you are getting at. That doesn't really suggest that humans are forerunner descendants. The forerunners had time to study and catalog humans so why wouldn't the Luminaries recognize us?

iv already been on an in depth post on bugnie over this lol, the reason i say their descendants is because the forerunner seeded there self with earth. You can take that in what ever way you want. But the rings were fired supposedly all forerunner died but humanity survived because the portal to the ark was created on earth so we could go to the ark survive the blast and return unscathed and thus populate the earth. Since the forerunner build the portal on earth and made contact with us who in the halo 3 ARG comic shows they are wearing really advanced stuff and we arn't then why would you assume that humans are forerunner and we just forgot all that technology ?

Is this a contradiction I spy? Seriously that was either a terrible mistype or you have no clue what you are talking about. You just said that the humans from the Halo series are Forerunner descendants, yet just a sentence later you are saying the Forerunners found humanity.

It's a fantasy universe, everything is set in stone. No more theories and what not.

When i say they seeded there self with earth, and i also say take it how you want too, what i should have said is that I think that the saying of the seeding there selves with earth is them leaving all there technology to humans not that they came and populated earth. Sorry for the contradiction my seeing of the definition of seeding, in this case, is not populating the planet and the reason i think this way is due to the ARG comic. If they had come and populated the earth there wouldn't be people with highly sophisticated machinery then a guy wearing tribal African ware.

Ok, then that was my bad. Most likely they just froze (in slip-space) the existing humans and had a construct send them back through the Ark's portal after it was certain the flood hadn't taken Earth.
