There are many depictions of these in ancient Maya, Aztec and Inca civilizations. Spacecraft depictions complete with landing gears (very similar to those of the Lunar Module), fins and antennae. 'Spacemen' with suits, boots and helmets, and are NEVER shown to carry weapons or shields.

There is one from the Aztecs that looks like an astronaut in a spacecraft.

There are also what looks like stellar maps showing the course they gone through the sky.
In North America (this includes Mexico) and Peru's Nazca Lines, there are giant geolyphs, some hundreds of meters in size, that are pointless at ground level, but are astonishing from above. Some of these could be considered as navigational beacons, with vectors and cardinal points.

Australian Aboriginal art also shows in many places uncanny resemblance also to astronauts and spacecraft. These include paintings and rock carvings. There are also giant rock 'sculptures' that bare uncanny resemblance to the geolyphs of the Americas.
There are many representations of 'UFOs' in renaissance art.
There is a site that does show many of these in the one place. Of the many quackery sites that are out there, this particular page is the most balanced in its language, views and insight to the various cultures mentioned:

What is interesting about all of the ancient cultures that make reference to contact to 'astronauts', these visitors are seen as important, important guests, but not a threat. Threats would not have the reverence that is paid to them. They all show a high level of contact and communication. AND they are all totally dependent on the level of initiation as to who has the contact with and access & understanding of the images. |
A fan of Erich Anton Paul von Däniken i I see.
