Cross-Cultural Non-Human Intelligence Reports
Do cross-cultural reports of non-human intelligences — gods, daimons, angels, jinn, modern entities — cluster into recognizable types too consistent across unconnected civilizations to be explained by shared psychology alone?

Abstract
What this investigation explores
Every literate civilization on record documents encounters with non-human intelligences, and the descriptions cluster around recognizable types across cultures that had no documented contact. If the phenomenon were purely psychological, content should vary as widely as dream imagery does across cultures. The apparent convergence — in the taxonomy, behavior, and diagnostic signs of these entities — makes this a testable research question rather than a settled one. This investigation examines that convergence, asks whether it exceeds what shared human neurology alone predicts, and asks what mechanism (receiver model, consensus reality, archetypal structures, or something else) best explains it. It sits adjacent to the consciousness-receiver-model investigation: if the brain receives rather than generates awareness, the question of what else might be broadcasting becomes live.
