			The Thirteenth Tribe left Kobol 4.000 years ago. But I suggest that they had no plan where to go. After they found Earth they send back a ship to Kobol that placed the beacon and brought the star maps to Kobol (seen in [[Home, Part II]]). --[[User:Akagi\|Akagi]] 11:41, 2 January 2008 (CST)

==Some Wild Speculation==

The colonials conclude that the beacon was a result of "accidental exposure" but, given that the beacon "appears to have gelatinous material within slats in its interior," this ''may'' raise a rather interesting question. Microbiological cultures and specimens are often kept and preserved in what could be described as "gelatinous material." So, was the contamination really accidental or was the dying Six on the basestar correct when she described it as "left behind by some humans to destroy us?"

Consider: Two thousand years before the Twelve Tribes left [[Kobol]], the [[Thirteenth Tribe]] set out... alone. In the four thousand years since then, there are no known accounts of the other tribe making any attempt at contact with their fellow humans. The only contact in forty centuries is with an abandoned beacon which bears a plague.

Why did the Thirteenth Tribe leave Kobol? And, perhaps more importantly, ''what if the Thirteenth Tribe doesn't '''want''' to be found''??
