OK here's a theory - The ampule room with the head. That is the "human" room - hence the head. You will walk into a variety of other rooms with efforgies of other races and all their dna/bio-matter in the ampules. Dig?

Could be that. . . The room where the SJ's created or experimented with our DNA, supposed to other sites used for other species. Perhaps a Xenomorph related ampule room somewhere. . . ;)

That would be a cool reveal. But... 1. Is the ampule room on the derelict? 2. Is the ampule room in a temple on Earth? 3. Is the ampule room in a temple on another planet? (Which one?)

Neat idea. Like there could be a 'human' room, a 'xenomorph' room and countless other life-form rooms where the SJ/Engineers (or whatever is the 'gods') have used to populate multiple planets in multiple solar systems throughout the galaxy.

This is a notion I seem to recall being mooted somewhere else, as I remember thinking that it would have been neat to see a couple of different types of giant 'alien' heads too. However, if there were others, I suspect the 'human'-like version would have been kept a secret and out of the promotional material, to keep it a plot-point surprise. So I reckon that there's only ONE 'giant head' in the movie, and it happens to look like us (or something very like us), for reasons yet unknown. However, for all we know at this point, those 'ampules' laid out nearby could themselves each hold a DIFFERENT 'DNA -type' within, rather than being just one type of the same 'bio-former'... [i]By the way, if you're reading this Ripley Clone 8, perhaps you can check out my request at the end of your 'GIF' topic at some point. Thanks.[/i]

I think the Ampule Room is on the planet that we see the small spacecraft going down to (with the huge mountain scene in the trailer). . . Although again, the Derelict was large enough to house a room this big. So who knows!

Google "Egyptian canopic jar" and some of the articles give me the chills. During mummification, the royal bloodlines of Egyptian throne would have their internal organs, or viscera removed and preserved in these jars. One jar type would house the lung, the other kidney, the other stomach, so on. The only organ they would leave behind is the heart because the heart is the seat of the soul. One of the theories for viscera in the jars is that they "believe" that they are going to need these organs when they are resurrected. If the Space Jockey is a dying race, and those little face huggers carry their genetic codes, then the eggs, and the jars in the Ampule Room, are no different in function from the Egyptian canopic jars. Maybe Earthlings are cattle to these "Gods", a host for them to recreate themselves.

I love the concept that humans are merely "hosts [for Gods] to recreate themselves." It lends itself to some crazy shit. Ultimately, with how epic this film aims to be, I expect a good amount of time on the earth discovery. Further, I expect it to be more ambitious in its shock value. More than chest-bursting and "haunted house" horrors; I think it's going to point towards our own human mythologies and creation stories to deliver some form of conceptual horror and shock. The idea that we our existence serves some sort of disturbing purpose or subservient role sounds great.
