I do like the idea of the statues being Prothean Gods. It would make sense, I guess, since we've had some pretty inhuman gods in our history.

But here's another idea. The statues are actually of a race that proceeded the Protheans, who just built on the proceeding race's ruins, much like the humans did on Feros. These strange predecessors could have looked like Cthulhuiod monstrosities, and could even be Arthrenn, Inusannon, Thoi'han or Zeioph, who would've been as mysterious to the Protheans as the Protheans were to the current Galactic Races.
