"The Silent Cartographer" is the fourth level in the first-person shooter (FPS) video game Halo: Combat Evolved. Taking place on the Halo ringworld, it follows the Master Chief and a group of UNSC Marines as they wage a daytime beachfront assault on the Covenant alien race in search of an ancient Forerunner installation known as The Silent Cartographer.

The level has received critical praise for its visuals and level design, as well as its use of vehicles to enhance gameplay. Called one of the most iconic levels in the Halo series, and one of the best FPS levels of all time, it is credited as a genre-defining level that changed how such levels would be designed in future games from linear, corridor-heavy designs to open spaces emphasizing player freedom. It was also an important aspect of Halo's development, crystallizing the decisions of the development team on the game's genre and visual design language.
