Easter Eggs
In Sanctuary, there are various places with text on the map. First, go to the top of the principal structure with a Sniper Rifle (the structure with the sword) and see the top of the two bases. In the Blue Base, there is text in capital letters that says CMV. The rock wall in the left of the Red Base says "Sid was here". An unidentified drawing/thing is to the right. "Sid was here" can also be seen on Coagulation.
Trivia
- On Bungie.net, the images for Sanctuary are placed in the /deltatap/ directory. "Delta" is obviously a reference to this level being on Delta Halo. "Tap" could possibly a reference to a water tap or faucet, as the map contains water that flows to the center through aqueducts. The maps codename before it's official release was called "Aqueduct," which somewhat provides evidence to this theory.
- In early pictures of Sanctuary, you can see tall thin structures all around the map. These were to be some sort of antenna, and also were going to be destructible. They were later removed as they served no purpose on an ancient structure.
- Sanctuary was added to Halo 2 in the Killtacular Pack.
- The map bears some resemblance in design to Wizard and Warlock, all circular arenas with bases that go inward to a main structure.
- Birds can be heard chirping in the background.
- Treadmarks are seen near the red base, this is also seen on Template:Levelname.
