This is simply the French spelling for Pyramid- you know the four-sided triangular monuments of ancient Egypt. I had six years of French and never saw this spelling. The Pyramids did figure in the Napoleonic wars- which also saw the discovery and eventual decoding of the Rosetta stone- a landmark in Archaeology and cryptography in the past tense.

What is the difference between de and du.. why do we say la pyramide du Louvre but le festival de Cannes and de New York et du New Jersey as well?
" du " is used instead of " de le ". This is for words (all of them masculine) that are that are usually preceded by " le ", like " le Louvre ", " le Mans ": je viens du Mans - J'ai vu les statues du Louvre (I come from le Mans - I've seen the statues from Le Louvre). Same for " New Jersey " (in French, " le New Jersey "). Doesn't work for Cannes or New York, proper nouns which never uses a definite article.When the definite article for a word is " la " (all feminine words) or the shortened l + apostrophe, you use " de la " or " de l' " without replacing them by " du ":J'ai de l'argent (I have money) - J'ai mangé de la confiture (I ate jam)
