Olympic Stadium/Rise of the Phoenix

The main stadium for the Olympics in London is called, "Olympic Stadium"  It features pyramid light standards that also have "benben" tops or illuminated eyes...

Without going into a whole big thing, the benben (aka sorcerer's stone) was used to regenerate life and cause immortality. 

In Egyptian mythology, the phoenix lived on the benben stone.  Quetzacoatl and King Arthur are depicted as the phoenix...

Is the stadium a giant ritual arena to propel the rebirth of the phoenix aka Quetzacoatl aka King Arthur?

Here's what the Roman poet Ovid wrote the about the phoenix:

Most beings spring from other individuals; but there is a certain kind which reproduces itself. The Assyrians call it the Phoenix. It does not live on fruit or flowers, but on frankincense and odoriferous gums. When it has lived five hundred years, it builds itself a nest in the branches of an oak, or on the top of a palm tree. In this it collects cinnamon, and spikenard, and myrrh, and of these materials builds a pile on which it deposits itself, and dying, breathes out its last breath amidst odors. From the body of the parent bird, a young Phoenix issues forth, destined to live as long a life as its predecessor. When this has grown up and gained sufficient strength, it lifts its nest from the tree (its own cradle and its parent's sepulchre), and carries it to the city of Heliopolis in Egypt, and deposits it in the temple of the Sun.

Frankincense and myrrh stand out in particular, don't they?  Recall that the oak is the symbol used in Kate Middleton's coat of arms.
