All creatures related to black goo have common characteristics. The engineers created the Deacon, or knew how to master it. David created an improvement of the Deacon. Many believe that the Deacon at the end of Prometheus has arrived randomly but it is false. There is only to replace the humans of the cycle by the Engineers because they have the same genome.
Agreed. David was in the statue room getting an urn. Of course he saw the Deacon sculpture on the wall. He didn't need to know the details.
On the ceiling there was a painting of a creature which seemed to be coming out of an Engineer.
What this sculpture and painting told him is that these godlike Engineers were creators.
And they had a shrine for a creation which we know as the Deacon.
The Engineers give birth/create strange creatures which seems part of their culture/religion.
David then takes the black goo urn. He poisons Holloway with it (after being pressured by Weyland). David then sees the black goo turning Holloway into something. David also knows that Holloway had sex with Shaw who is now pregnant with a monster. Then David finds out about Fifield showing up who is now a full grown monster.
On the Paradise planet David drops hundreds of black goo bombs on the Engineer city. He sees the black goo transforming the Engineers, insects, mold spores into monster incubators. He sees one result which is the Neomorph.
From all that David, thinking that he is also a creator god like the Engineers, decides to start growing his own version of an Engineer monster.
