The fundamental energy responsible for the universe is consciousness, and the goal of consciousness is to create, to experience, to learn and to improve (or re-create), ultimately evolving to a state of lower entropy (creating order out of chaos). The pyramids on the ancient artifacts represent our consciousness. And if you take a look at the depictions of the pyramids with the eye (or sun) on top, you’ll notice that the top of the pyramid is always missing. This symbolizes the fact that the development of our consciousness is always ongoing and will likely never end — at least for as long as the universe exists. We’re on a continuous path of building our consciousness, brick by brick, slowly but surely reaching higher states of awareness.
And where are we ultimately heading? To the very top, of course; towards the sun; towards enlightenment. The ancient people used various objects in nature to symbolize certain concepts, and the sun above the pyramid represents enlightenment — the highest state of awareness, knowledge and wisdom. The idea behind this is that the bright light from the sun allows us to see our environment and when we can see our environment clearly — i.e. when we can see things as they truly are — we can start to collect valid information about it and build a good understanding of it. That’s why when you withhold knowledge from people it’s called “keeping them in the dark.” This is also why one of the well known secret societies called themselves the Illuminati; they considered themselves the illuminated ones, because they possessed knowledge others didn’t have; in other words, they were illuminated by the extra knowledge they possessed while everyone else was (relatively) in the dark.
