Not Sid Was Here.
Level:
Coagulation
How to get to it:
Starting from the red base, go into the teleporter. Once out of the teleporter, go into the cave directly behind you. go to the ledge inside the cave that drops off into the pool w/ the overshield/active camo in it. right before the drop, look to your left. about head level are the words "not sid was here". its written in the same way as the text behind the rocks on beaver creek.
Meaning:
The meaning is as yet unknown. Theories that Sid is a level designer for Bungie and wanted to leave his mark on the maps is the most widely-credited theory.
