Wasn't Killimanjaro the mountain you could see in the back on the E3 H3 trailer?

It's quite a way off... I don't think it's the Ark(Or the thing in the trailer, not sure if it's been confirmed as the ark)
It might be where the picture of the hand or the symbol we've all forgotten about is etched into the rock (wild guess!) :)

EDIT:No wait..it says the symbol was found in Tanzania, where Mt Killamanjaro is...still cool!

"001 012 034 053"
could be changed to...
"100 102 304 503"
Were those not the number of replies for each of AR's stickies on B.net?

Blah, that probably doesn't really aid anyone much at all.
I'm off to bed :( My brain can't think any more.

I was looking through some of the Marketing Pics for Halo 3, and it looked as though Kilimanjaro farted in Chiefs general direction.

UPDATE: Remember the last two numbers? 34 and 53? Here's something for even greater justice that might lead us in a good direction: Tanzania's eastern coordinate is 34 degrees and 53 minutes! w00t!

Where did SOTA say that new symbol was found (the Forerunner symbol painted on the rock)? Isn't it around these coordinates?

Not exactly...

It's in East Africa, Uganda to be precise. Not too far from Voi, Kilamanjaro and Mombassa...

The coordinates lead to a large mountain with a crater, possibly a volcano.
