Reptilians have been depicted throughout history and are chronicled by diverse cultures worldwide. Individuals without contact or communication with one another share eerily similar accounts of lizard-like overlords. Indigenous Mayans idolized Quetzalcoatl, a mighty Snake God. Sumerians spoke of the Anunnaki, an extraterrestrial race thought to influence mankind. Gnostic texts refer to the Archons as a group of parasitic entities that consume our energy. Here’s a look at some other examples from across the globe:
Cherufe: Chilean lore illustrates a sinister saurian breed living deep within the Earth. They have a voracious appetite for human flesh— preferably from young children and virgin maidens. Residents felt the only way to appease Cherufe was to sacrifice chosen victims by throwing them inside an active volcano.
Sobek: One of the oldest deities named in ancient pyramid hieroglyphics happens to be a crocodilian humanoid. Egyptians revered the peculiar hybrid as a fearsome ruler with supernatural abilities. Worshippers believed he protected travelers crossing the perilous Nile River. Sobek is often associated with military power due to his ferocity.
Chitauri: South African tribal legends mention a primordial race of 9-foot-tall reptilians. According to Zulu shaman Credo Mutwa, Chitauri translates to ‘the dictators’ or ‘the ones who tell us the law’. These interdimensional voyagers are telekinetic, technologically advanced, and hostile toward humans. Mutwa stated they feed off of our negative emotions.
Sheti: Native American folklore speaks of the Snake Brothers, an influential group of genetic engineers. Hopi tribe members believe these reptilians live in subterranean cities throughout the South Western United States. One major underground base is located in Dulce, New Mexico. Other traditions link the Sheti with other beings that closely resemble gray aliens. Jinn: Numerous passages in the Quran outline a nefarious invisible force capable of shapeshifting at will. Arabic literature also details identical entities that reside in a parallel dimension. Jinn are thought to be extremely cunning and malicious towards people. Certain populations in the Middle East regard these ‘tricksters’ as a menace to humankind.
Ningishzida: Sumerian sagas chronicle a dreadful serpentine beast with anthropomorphic features. He is Lord of the Tree of Life and a guardian of Anu, the fabled Sky Father. Sacred texts link Ningishzida to the underworld. Modern archeologists unearthed 7,000-year-old Mesopotamian statues portraying an unknown reptilian race in striking detail. Naga: Hindu texts chronicle an ancient species of mysterious brutes. These forked-tongue beings possess both human and serpentine characteristics. Vedic scripture describes them as inhabitants of the netherworld. Nagas have the ability to shapeshift into various forms and can be dangerous if encountered. Indians believe this elusive breed holds the secret to immortality.
Dragon Kings: Chinese mythology is laden with colorful imagery and stories about dragons. Sometimes these scaled creatures take the form of reptilian humanoids. Dragon Kings are formidable water deities capable of controlling the weather and can manipulate other living organisms. In Asia, ruling emperors claim to be descendants of the coveted ‘dragon’ bloodline.
