>The Ancient Great Ones were a divine race of Alchemists and Sorcerers, who came to dwell in caves; They were in several tribes: Kabeiroi, the Great Gods of Samothrace, Korubantes, Kouretes, Idaian Daktuloi, Telkhines. Strabo [10.3.19-21] said They were Demon Ministers to the Gods and were Gods Themselves; They were the Ancient Gods, Beings of Incalculable Age who lived before the Gods we know, but now are Dead. Even so, Their Power has not been extinguished
>Some of the Ancient Ones were Giants, others were Dwarfs. The Dwarfs were called Orculi because They dwell in Orcus, the infernal Land of Death. (Some say the Orcades [Orkneys] take the name from the Mouth of Hell hidden in their cliffs.) To this day, their descendants, who dwell unseen in the caves that riddle the body of the Earth like wormholes, are called Orculli (the Dwarfs) and Orchi (the Giants) in northern Italy
>According to Plutarch [Cess. Or.] it was the Ancient Gods who spoke through the Oracles, and with Their death the Oracles have become quiet. Goethe was familiar with the Ancient Ones and named them in Faust Part II. Schelling was obsessed by Them and devoted a monograph to them
>i. We speak first of Those whom the Samothracians call Great Gods, and whom the Books of the Augurs call the Mighty Gods, for they did not dare to mention Their terrible names. Indeed, their awful-sounding names were kept secret for untold ages, until they were revealed by Mnaseas: Axieros, Axiokersa, Axiokersos and Kasmilos (or Kadmilos). Isopsephia gives the numbers of Their names: 986, 1007, 1276, 571 (or 375). Some say the first three are a Holy Triad, Father, Mother and Daughter; others say They are two Gods [Axieros, Axiokersos] attendant on a Goddess [Axiokersa]. The fourth is the Messenger, who completes the Quaternity; He carries the unmentionable Basket, into which only Initiates may peer and retain their sanity. Servius says Kasmilos' name is Etruscan, others say it is Hittite
