That artifact is referred to by most modern anthropologists as a GPS receiver.
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.

The intersection of 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude is known as the Prime Meridian and the Equator.
The 55th latitude and 55th longitude meet at the intersection point in the Pacific Ocean near the Alaska Peninsula, southwest of Alaska. This intersection represents the coordinates where the latitude and longitude lines cross each other.
A line of constant longitude is often called a "meridian". A line of constant latitude is often called a "parallel".
The other name for Longitude is Meridians. same way as the prime meridian The other name for Latitude is Parallels. same way as the equador

Once you name a longitude and latitude, you've nailed down a single point on the Earth's surface, and no other point anywhere on Earth can have the same longitude and latitude.
0 longitude is the prime meridian. 0 latitude is the equator.

For Maps, it is latitude and longitude.
Parallels and meridians, respectively.
Neither. Or both. Guatemala is a country. Latitude is a word for the position North/South for a spot on Earth. And longitude is the name for a position East/West.
No "named" line of longitude crosses Australia. The Tropic of Capricorn (latitude) crosses Australia.
The intersection of 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude is known as the Prime Meridian and the Equator.
