RE: The Orion Nebula's Relationship to Ancient Civilizations

Interesting read.
It is thought that the pyramids they created were modeled after these three stars in Orion's belt. If you look at the above picture, you can understand it easily. And archaeologists have found proof of this. The three pyramids were a terrestrial map of the three constellations in Orion's belt which clearly states that they were constructed in relation to Orion's belt [bold letters added].
Could you please provide a source for this?

You can also read this article saying something like that
I see, but did you read it? Notice that this paper your citing is not supporting that idea of the supposed correlation between the stars and the pyramids, but rather making the case against it. The abstract of the paper ends with this:
I'm asking because I've heard of this idea before. It's been broadly dismissed.
I understood. In fact, these are people's thoughts which are not completely compatible. For example, the Orion Nebula is called the cosmic fire of creation, which is not entirely true, but it is true that it is the place where the stars are created.Some scientists think that the pyramids are towers that were used to communicate with aliens. This type of episode was aired on nat geo channel.
LOL, they are not scientists. Most of them are just writers and a few fringe professionals. That idea has been debunked too, it's just pseudo-scientific stuff. Of course, History Channel airs it because, contrary to appearances, they really aren't committed to science popularization. They need to sell and sensationalism sells well.
