Type 2: The Space-Jockeys - the men we see throughout the movie carrying out what appears to be a military operation. Distinctive features: 1) body armour/exoskeleton, 2) horseshoe-shaped spacecraft.
The point: The Engineers have nothing to do with the operation Prometheus stumbles onto in the film. The Space-Jockeys are the ones that want Humanity gone.
Are they a species divided?

In my mind, they are 2 distinct species / genetic mutations. Humanity finds the WRONG Engineers - the good Engineers left us WARNINGS not to go there, not invitations.
