Updates

Lurkaia is a living project that keeps growing and improving. New creature profiles, newly documented legends, additional places on the map and technical refinements all change how the site develops over time. The updates section gathers those changes so readers can follow the project as it evolves.

Each update entry records what has been added, corrected or expanded: new articles, missing legends now incorporated, reader-reported errors that have been fixed, and translations that open the project to more languages. It is a transparent log of the work behind the pages.

This section also announces new site features: interactive tools, navigation improvements, fresh parts of the blog or structural changes that make the archive easier to use. If readers want to know what is new in Lurkaia, this is where that conversation is collected.

Not every update comes only from inside the project. We also note relevant discoveries from the wider field of Basque mythology, whether that means a new academic study, a historical document, or a valuable oral testimony gathered by researchers and local communities.

Corrections prompted by readers are documented here as well. If a source was misattributed, a local version of a legend was missing or a factual detail needed revision, we explain what changed. Lurkaia improves through attentive reading and shared knowledge.

The section can also be used to invite collaboration: requests for information about little-documented legends, calls for photographs of mythical places or invitations to share family memories of local traditions. We want the project to remain open to collective contribution.

Finally, updates sometimes look forward: which regions need more representation, which formats might be developed next and how the project may continue growing. Readers who return often should feel that they are following a living cultural work, not a closed archive.
