The Flood seemingly first entered the galaxy from the Large Magellanic Cloud at the edge of the Milky Way roughly 110,000 years ago, contained in cylinders in unmanned vessels where they were kept as a powder. A considerable amount of time passed between their initial discovery by prehistoric humans and their evolution into their current form. The Flood were eventually able to infect Human worlds, sparking both the Human-Flood war and, as a consequence, the Human-Forerunner war. However, the Humans successfully developed a 'cure' for the Flood infection and were able to eradicate it. It would be thousands of years before they were again able to threaten the galaxy.

Unbeknownst to the humans, they had not actually found a cure, but the Flood had chosen not to infect the humans because the humans had passed the 'test' to attain the Mantle - in the process of stopping the Flood, the humans had thrown a third of their population against them.
