Gegant Negre (Cervera)
The name "Gegant Negre (Cervera)" combines Catalan elements meaning "Black Giant" and a toponym (Cervera), but the supplied sources do not document a coherent traditional supernatural being by that exact name. Available evidence shows the "gegant" motif appearing in contemporary Catalan-language literary and science‑fiction texts as a poetic or apocalyptic image rather than as an ethnographic, ritualized entity tied to Cervera.
