“it state the longitude and latitude coordinations...”

Longitude and latitude? 2000 years ago? How’d they do that?

They are talking about latitude and longitude of the stars...the longitude would be based on the signs of the zodiac.

The later text is in Syriac (but you have to read through most of the Daily Mail article before they mention that).

Tycho Brahe made very accurate observations of stars and planets before the invention of the telescope.
