How can you be so sure that these "aliens" are telling the truth now when they have changed their story so many times in the past? Isn't it even more likely that our technology and science is not advanced at this time to truly understand what these occupants actually are and that as we advance we will simply start hearing a new story?

Maybe in times past they never told anyone what they were and left the population at the time to label them as they wished. That would be a possible explanation.

Exactly and then subsequently would you tell a bunch of barbarians where you lived !
I'm not sure whether there are any real inconsistencies or if so whether any meaning can be attributed. What would be interesting is to see whether there are any consistencies between physical appearance, supposed point of origin and earthly geographical location of contact.
I don't believe in the ancient astronauts theory. Most of the evidence used to support this idea is based on misidentified artistic symbolism, and a lack of understanding of the ancient peoples' belief systems and depictions of said beliefs. If most of the proponents of such theories bothered to take the time and study these facets, they'd realize that a gold disk in the sky emitting rays in a Renaissance painting really represents a common representation of the Holy Spirit (the same golden disc as a halo) vs. depicting a UFO, for example.
4). While inferior, our own tech is sufficient enough to deter an alien occupation, OR they simply have no interest in doing so.

You will also find evidence from DNA and the "junk DNA". Genetic manipulation has gone all the way back towards Sumeria.
If we are the only life forms on this galaxy, then GOD help us all...
