What do you think about ancient deities? Were they just man made myths, or could they have been aliens who appeared godlike to ancient humans because of their vastly superior intelligence?

They are Jinn (Genies). Surely, they will try their deception in the form of Aliens again.
They were archetypal superhumans who represented the absolutes of certain human qualities.
Fallen angels
we still create stories about superhumans, there’s a continuous line going back to the mythology, no reason to think the old gods were any more substantial than batman or jesus
I grew up watching Ancient Aliens, so I’m guessing they’re beings from another place.
They were a people’s way of explaining things that were at the time unexplained.
” Dad I’m scared what’s that noise?”
“Nothing to worry about kiddo, Just Thor the mighty, chasing away the giants with his big hammer!”
“Thor?”
“You remember, the guy that uses the rainbow bridge to get home and back. Remember when we saw it that time. Only special people see it and know what it is”
kiddo goes back to sleep. Dad tells his friends about the neat new way he’s found to shut his kid up. Friends start using it on their kids.
Story gets embellishments for hundres of generations et voila!
They are the universe things like the sun, stars, season changes. Somehow they got personified. They are only fallen because we stopped remembering the truth.
