Could it be that some other spacefaring race brings imitators from St 
Anne to Earth during the time of the Homeric Greeks, where they 
infiltrate as feys and elfs then are assimilated? The other spacers 
could return to St Anne with humans who are imitated and assimilated, 
setting the stage for the French explorers to land 4 000 years later?

In reading about the middle eastern strife, I see that there is indeed a 
colonial pattern of using multiple races to dominate one another, even 
importing a elite minority when necessary; thus the Rwandan civil war 
after the Belgians stopped supporting the Tutsi as their exploiters of 
the Hutus and the the Twa pygmies.
