I didn't know anything about the Talosians, but it's interesting that
the description from Wikipedia is *very* much reminiscent of Philip K.
Dick's version of the race of aliens from Sirius, as mentioned in
_VALIS_:
"In the fictional Star Trek universe, the Talosians were a race of
humanoids who inhabited the planet Talos IV (In the original pilot
script it was Sirius IV and the Captain was Robert April. The aliens
who kidnapped Pike were originally crab-like.) They were very highly
evolved and had incredibly large crania due to the extreme level to
which their brains had been developed. They were telepathic and had no
need to speak in order to communicate..."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talosians
"The primordial source of all our religions lies with the ancestors of
the Dogon tribe, who got their cosmogony and cosmology directly from
the three-eyed invaders who visited long ago. The three-eyed invaders
were mute and deaf and telepathic, could not breathe our atmosphere,
had the elongated misshapen skull of Ikhnaton, and emanated from a
planet in the star system Sirius. Although they had no hands, but had,
instead, pincer claws such as a crab has, they were great builders.
They covertly influence our history toward a fruitful end."

"The misshapen skull of Ikgnaton" is a good description:
