In all fairness, I wasn't there when the archaeologists named it, and I have no idea why they named it that, but yeah it's called a Benben stone, they've been called that for a long time. Yeah it sounds silly, but that's probably the only correct word in their post. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Yeah, but like I said to someone else, not really... it's like calling the Cleopatra's Needle "the Egyptian obelisk." I mean, yeah, it's an obelisk. But it's not THE obelisk.
