"I have this strange feeling that those pyramids are pointing to something really, really important."

The unusual location of the Great Pyramid suggests that it was the monument spoken of in Scripture by Isaiah the prophet.
Isaiah 19:19-20
"In that day shall thee be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar Hebrew "Matstsebah" correctly translated means monument) at the border thereof to the Lord. And it shall be for a sign, and for a witness unto the Lord of HOsts in the land of Egypt."

Since the full official name of the Pyramind, the Great Pyramid of Giza, means, in English, the Great Pyramid of the Border, the answer to the apparently contradictory definition of Isaiah is found in the Great Pyramid. The only spot on the face of the earth that completely answers this description, both geometrically and geographically, is the precise place where the Great Pyramid actually stands."

I'd appreciate a reference to that. My sources say the Pyramid of Cheops was called akhet khufu, which means, unsurprisingly, "pyramid of cheops". The Egyptian word for pyramid is derived from their word for "horizon", not "border". It's a religious metaphor but the explanation is a bit long.
