A '''timelock'''<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 271''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''pages 18, 191, 227''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 170''</ref> is a temporal stasis field in which the passage of time is brought to a standstill through sophisticated [[Slipstream space|higher-dimensional]] manipulation. Both the [[Forerunner]]s and prehistoric [[San'Shyuum]] possessed timelocking technology. [[Prehistoric human civilization|Prehistoric humans]] placed a form of timelock—a piece of ancient San'Shyuum technology also known as a '''time bolt'''—on the [[Primordial]]'s [[stasis capsule|prison]] beneath [[Charum Hakkor]]'s [[Charum Hakkor arena|arena]] to prevent it from escaping. According to the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]], this measure was almost as effective as Forerunner technology.<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 121''</ref> | A '''timelock'''<ref>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 271''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''pages 18, 191, 227''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 170''</ref> is a temporal stasis field in which the passage of time is brought to a standstill through sophisticated [[Slipstream space|higher-dimensional]] manipulation.
