Bonadona i Altemir originate as part of Premià de Dalt's festival tradition rather than from a mythic creation narrative. The available source frames them as processional giants belonging to the town's communal ritual life; it does not provide a mythic or legendary origin for the figures themselves. Within the broader Catalan context, such giants commonly emerge from municipal initiatives to embody local history, identity, or notable personae, but no specific founding story, creator, or date for Bonadona and Altemir is documented in the provided material.
The source identifies Bonadona i Altemir as processional giants, a class of large anthropomorphic effigies typically several meters tall and designed to be carried or worn during parades. Generically, Catalan gegants are built on internal frames, often with papier-mâché or carved heads and costumed bodies reflecting local, historical, or symbolic dress; they are tall enough to loom over crowds and can appear male, female, or represent civic figures. However, the provided source gives no specific physical descriptions, colors, garments, gendered features, or iconographic attributes unique to Bonadona or Altemir, so any detailed features beyond the generic characteristics of processional giants are not documented.
There is no documentation of animate or supernatural abilities for Bonadona i Altemir. Their functional role is performative and civic: they are carried in processions, may 'dance' or move rhythmically under the control of bearers, and serve to represent municipal identity, history, or celebration. Any agency they possess is theatrical and dependent on human handlers during festivals rather than being inherent supernatural powers.
