While taking a break I checked for this intialism on the www.google.com
search engine.  One of the answers was,

  I can`t get it exactly (not being an initiate) but   
  it was                                               
  something like Ancient Mystical Order Priorie de     
  Sion.                                                
  They programmed mountaintops from Jerusalem to the   
  Baltic Sea.  They were (are?) heavily into geometry. 
                                                       
  Isaac Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, and other notables  
  were members it is claimed.                          
                                                       
                                                       
 This is in the archives of    geocrawler.com          
                                                       
 There were a number of other hits.  This seems to fit 
 into the fraternal                                    
 organization speculation.
