The date 100,000 B.C.E. is the approximate time when The Forerunners fired the Halos[1], what The Covenant refer to as The Great Journey. Guilty Spark stated that the time was exactly 101,217 yearsTemplate:Fact, but since he was measuring in local years, this may not be accurate for the human calendar. The activation killed all sentient life in three radii of the galactic center including the Forerunners themselves. The date, 100,000 years ago, is around the time our Homo sapiens ancestors began migrating out of Africa.
This is also the time period when the Halo 3: The Cradle of Life mini comics takes place. These comics tell us that human beings saw something (the [portal to the Ark) being built by "Gods" (Forerunner's machines?) in Africa.
