Most folks haven't figured out that it isn't a person "at the top of the pyramid". It's an AI quantum computer that was left by "someone" to support their newly created biosphere. (genesis story) The "us" who created man in "our" image. The capstone and "arc of the covenant" have been missing / stolen since Moses (exodus story) and the planet has pretty much been under control of those who gained access (burning bush hologram / the ten commands) to the operating system every since.
