See King Of Lanka Ravan, prices Siva.
Ravan is an Asura also he have link with Rakshasa.
All these words( Rakshasa, Asura, Naga, Pisacha, Sura, Yaksha), I strongly doubt ancient tribs.
Ravan in Ramayana and Bhagavata wrongly described as a 10 headed demon who is cruel and ugly looking.
But It may be the alterations by another one after the period of original poet.
10 headed (Dasakandan) etc are wrong translation of Dravida tongue to Arya tongue. Actually it means Emperor of Ten Villages or kingdoms etc.
All that apart what I want to say is Alterations to old books are not only did in west but also east. And an in-depth truth finding is necessary to separate chaff from these books.
