| Only two reliquaries are known. The first was likely the planet Ulgethon, a world in [[Sangheili]] territory with [[Forerunner]] relics where the [[Sangheili]] and [[San'Shyuum]] encountered each other.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 147''</ref> The second was the human-colonized 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]]. In reality, the signal being read by Covenant scans as Forerunner artifacts to be reclaimed were in fact individual human beings, who were all labeled as [[Reclaimer]]s until scanning technology was altered to prevent that knowledge from falling to the general Covenant populace.

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