I put the coordinates in and I found this nearby:

Isn't that the marathon symbol?

I'd say close enough. Good find! I don't think the Marathon symbol was in Halo 4 due to legal reasons, because it use to be my emblem in previous Halo's and I never found it in H4. Perhaps a few minor design differences were made with the symbol just like what happened with the monitors.
 
It looks like something is buried in the ground in the middle of the symbol, it could be a tomb. The similarities between that picture and the marathon/reclaimer symbol are hard to deny.
 
The inner circle is too small, looks "off".

The inner circle is too small? NOPE. Look at the proportions they are almost identical. The only difference is that there is something buried under the sand in the very center. The guy above got the coordinates from the ARG and look where it took him, in the middle of a desert with a symbol that looks just like the reclaimer one. That would be way too much of a coincidence.

Where the coordinates took him.

A little zoomed in. To me that's about as perfect a symbol you will get while making lines in the sand/stacking stones.

I tried to replicate this and couldn't do so.

The reference in the picture says "Tin Amali" which is far to the south east of where 27,248,117 put me.

I should mention that it isn't exactly at those coordinates. Still it's a hell of a coincidence.

Maybe the coordinates are for the general area?

First one is how the Prophets had had the glyph for most of the Covenant's history and thought to be "Reclamation". Second one is how Mendicant Bias' fragment inside High Charity, who flipped and corrected it for them the night the Covenant declared war on Humanity, and it actually means "Reclaimer".

Third one is 343 Industries' version of the logo because Bungie owned the rights to it. Interesting that they're using the old version again. Could be explained as just a stylized variant of the Reclaimer glyph.
 
It's possible they toned down the highly baroque design of the Reclaimer symbol in Halo 4 and made it something a little closer to the original without getting sued in their entirety. I actually had to do something similar so that I had a COMPLETELY ORIGINAL CONTENT logo for a project that will not be named and has absolutely no bearing on my aspirations:

And the "stolen gauntlet" refers to Halsey? I drew this ages ago for YourExWife's review of The Thursday War:

Old version? The main difference between 343's and the "Reclaimer" glyph is that the thinner section up top has been severed and there's a rod hanging from the center circle now. But even if you were to reconnect the top portion, the thicker part of the outer circle is on the bottom (instead of the top like in the "Reclaimation" glyph). Obviously, they had to "update" the imagery, but I visually can only see it as being a variant of the "Reclaimer", not "Reclaimation".

Oh well :P

Old version as in Bungie's Marathon logo. Not the incorrect upside-down glyph. There is no "Reclamation" glyph. That was a mistranslation by the prophets.

From Contact Harvest:

“Blessed Herald of the Journey!” the Philologist wailed, neck low and arms spread wide. “Tell us the error of our ways!”
The Oracle’s eye dimmed. For a moment it looked as though it might resume its long silence.
But then it blazed anew, projecting a hologram of the reclamation glyph recorded by Rapid Conversion’s Luminary.
< THIS IS NOT RECLAMATION > the Oracle boomed. < THIS IS RECLAIMER >
Slowly the glyph turned upside down, and its central shapes&#8212;the concentric circles, one low inside the other, connected by a thin line&#8212;took on a different aspect. The shapes&#8217;
previous arrangement had resembled the pendulum of a clock. Inverted, the glyph now looked
like a creature with two curved arms locked above its head. The glyph shrunk in size as the
hologram zoomed out to show the entire alien world, covered with thousands of these newly
oriented Luminations.
< AND THOSE IT REPRESENTS ARE MY MAKERS >
Now it was Fortitude&#8217;s turn to feel weak in the knees. He grasped the arms of his throne and
tried to come to terms with an impossible revelation: each glyph represented a Reclaimer, not a
relic, and each Reclaimer was one of the planet&#8217;s aliens&#8212;which could only mean one thing.

From Contact Harvest:

God, I loved that part of Contact Harvest. The way MB laid the smack down on the prophets and tried to start up the Dreadnought. You could imagine him thinking "I've had enough of it with these fools!!!"
 
Oh, I get it, it's an authorization joke. He's saying we don't have the clearance or something.

That, or somebody would have to have some ludicrous clearance to come across whatever it is this new ARG is detailing.
 
I don't approve if he's in Halo.

You don't hire Ludacris because he's the best person for the role. The only way he is the best person for the role is if it's the role of Ludacris. You hire Ludacris to put his name on the box.

You switched up that Halo hate quick hahaha ;) I bet he'll be his own character, some spartan 4 you meet. Maybe he's a massive fan?
 
Oh shit, Frankie is back... drop some bombs, please. I am itching to finally see some Campaign footage, just knowing it's just a month and a half away.
