The Nine Unknown Men
The Nine Unknown Men are a two millennia-old secret society founded by the Indian Emperor Asoka c. 270 BCE.
The society occasionally revealed itself to wise outsiders such as Pope Sylvester II who was said to have received, among other things, training in supernatural powers and a robotic talking head from the group.
Believers in the Nine also point to the mysterious Iron pillar of Delhi, which they claim to have been constructed at a time before the technology to create it existed in common circulation.
In more recent times, it has been suggested, the Nine assisted humanity by revealing the secret of the Cholera vaccine.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton (of "It was a dark and stormy night" fame) wrote a parody of the Nine Unknown Men that many, including perhaps Helena Blavatsky, took as fact.

The "Nine unknown men" secret society - Indian version of Illuminati. They were supposedly founded by Asoka (pic 1), presented Pope Sylvester II (pic 2) with robots and what not, their technology explains the metallurgical excellence of the Iron pillar (pic 3), they came up with a cholera vaccine (pic 4). Bulwer-Lytton whose infamous opening lines Snoopy imitates in pic 5 wrote a story based on this. Excellent question.
