I found a few things about pre-1900 UFO sightings. Anything much earlier is probably just artistic imagination and weird symbolisms. Although Carl Sagan did cite the Sumerian legend of Oannes...

SF has lots of secret aliens living among us, like Clifford Simak's Way Station.
Is their any possibility Roswell really was a spaceship crashing, or is that totally discredited? The alien might still be repairing his/her ship, sharing just tiny tidbits of tech with the Pentagon.
The apparent size of the UFO doesn't necessarily indicate its mass. It could be a tiny vessel projecting an image or something. A tiny vessel manipulating aircraft sensors.
Our planet might have had an earlier civilization 100 million or a billion years ago, and they're studying us. The EG has articles on the Hiders, so the earlier civ. might be Hiders in the Oort Cloud, watching us covertly.
The prehistoric civ. might have suffered a disaster, lost a lot of knowledge and technology, and only recently
re-acquired it.
They might have been hiding in underground caverns until recently.
Different UFO sightings might have different explanations, some of them listed in the poll choices, some not.
