ET In Pyramid
On the hieroglyphs inside the pyramid are the letters "ET", which is the name of a popular alien movie. People have associated this with the aliens creating pyramids theory.

Shifting Sand Land UFO
An anomaly known as the Shifting Sand Land UFO can appear and remove the top of the pyramid in Shifting Sand Land to make an alternative access to the Eyerok boss fight.
