*Despite several compendium entries stating that Alciel is derived from Mesopotamian culture, there is no evidence to support this claim; it is likely a conflation resulting from the use of the word "Chaldean" to describe Alciel in the occult book ''The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets'', by Barbara G. Walker. At the time the book was written, "Chaldean" was often used to describe figures in occultism, not figures related to the historical Chaldea of Mesopotamia. | *Despite several compendium entries stating that Alciel is derived from Mesopotamian culture, there is no evidence to support this claim; it is likely a conflation resulting from the use of the word "Chaldean" to describe Alciel in the occult book ''The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets'', by Barbara G.
