Gegants de Llucmaçanes

The source presents the Gegants de Llucmaçanes as part of the local festival and procession traditions of Llucmaçanes, Maó. There is no mythological origin given; they belong to the wider Iberian/Catalan practice of creating and parading oversized human-shaped figures (gegants) as symbolic and ceremonial representatives in civic and religious events.

The available source identifies them generically as "processional giants," indicating they are oversized human-shaped effigies made for parading in processions. No specific description of materials, clothing, facial features, or construction details is provided in the source; the label implies they are large figures carried or wheeled in public ritual, consistent with the regional gegants category but without further attested particulars.

The source does not attribute supernatural powers or independent agency to the Gegants de Llucmaçanes. Their functioning is as cultural artifacts: they are carried, displayed, and maneuvered by people during processions and festivals, acting as symbolic actors within communal ritual rather than autonomous beings.
