I wish i could track down the book that contains the story. I am not sure whether it was one of general Fortean tales or one dealing with possible pre industrial age UFO stories. I am sure it was the same book where i first read of the *Skyship and the anchor* tale. One which seems to originate in Ireland, yet was repeated across England in the same time period.

I don't know about other planets but consider how similar Icthyosaurs are to dolphins and how koala's have almost identical fingerprints to humans.
It's called convergent evolution. Nature and evolution tends to be efficient and similar problems will likely result in similar solutions, even in isolation or when separated by vast differences in time.
