The Great Pyramid of Giza was the tallest artificial structure on Earth for three and a half millennia and is the only extant example of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Ancient Egypt is inherently cool. Plenty of writers, primarily in the Fantasy genre, like to have pyramids in their works to evoke an Egyptian feel.
