During Cybertron's ancient past, the Thirteen each led one of the Thirteen Tribes that waged war over the surface. In this time, the Enigma was in the hands of Nexus Prime, who used it to create the Ancient Headmasters, combining humanoid Transformers with beast-form Cybertronians from the ranks of his ally Onyx Prime. Sickened by these "abominations", the barbarian Galvatron waged a bloody crusade to slay all the Headmasters, then killed Nexus himself and took the Enigma to prevent its powers from being used to perpetuate what he saw as further perversions of Cybertronian purity. Later partnering with Nova Prime, who hoped to use the Enigma's power for his own ends, Galvatron lied and claimed that Nexus had fled the planet, taking the Enigma with him. However, their mutual ally Alpha Trion could detect the falsehood in Galvatron's words—none had ever known whether or not the Enigma was anything more than a concept, but Galvatron clearly knew it to be a physical object. Realizing that he had accidentally tipped his hand, Galvatron shot the Enigma into space to put it beyond his allies' reach. Eventually, seven million years ago, it crash-landed on Earth.
