The '''Charum Hakkor system'''<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 217'' (''"I remembered the ring-shaped void and streaming trace left in the magnetic field and solar wind of the Charum Hakkor system."'')</ref> was a star system located in the borders of the [[Milky Way|Milky Way Galaxy]]. Once the heart of the [[prehistoric human civilization|prehistoric human empire]], the system had fifteen planets, three of which were major human colonies; these included the system's namesake and most significant world, [[Charum Hakkor]]. The rest were mined for ore and volatiles.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 122''</ref> The system was known to be on the extreme edge of the galactic halo. The stars of the galaxy could only be seen in one hemisphere of the night sky. The other was the blackness of the [[intergalactic space|intergalactic void]].<ref> '''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 115''</ref>

==History==
==History==
Millions of years ago, [[Charum Hakkor]] was inhabited by the long-vanished [[Precursor]]s, who built a wealth of impressive structures on and around the planet. Later, Charum Hakkor served as the political center of the [[human-San 'Shyuum alliance]] and was the last human world to fall in the [[Human-Forerunner War]] circa [[109,000 BCE]].<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 111''</ref> In approximately [[100,043 BCE]], the system was used as a test site for [[Installation 07]]; this was the first test firing of a [[Halo Array|Halo installation]]. The effects of the weapon devastated the complex ecosystem on [[Faun Hakkor]] and the [[Precursor]] structures on neighboring Charum Hakkor.

The effects of the weapon devastated the complex ecosystem on [[Faun Hakkor]] and the [[Precursor]] structures on neighboring Charum Hakkor. 100,000 years later, the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] found detailed environment scans of a Forerunner memorial site, stored on [[Requiem]].<ref>'''Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide''', ''page 223''</ref> Situated in the rings of [[Sothra Hakkor]], it led to the creation of a [[Monolith|simulation]] used by the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]] complement for [[War Games]] training.<ref>'''Halo 4''', multiplayer map ''[[Monolith]]''</ref>
