Mind you, I've always spelled it "Yukub Kakix" and he was a golem, but that probably comes from the book of ancient Mayan Fairy Tales that forgot to describe him as a bird and got his name wrong.
I compromised. I kept him a golem, but spelled his first name with a V.
The Shadow Golem was meant to show up much earlier. While working on Andrea's death scene, originally, shadows were supposed to come crawling around the tower and a shadow golem would have crawled around from the top, stomping his hands and shaking the tower until she fell. I scrapped that thinking that the Shadows don't really have a "physical" substance to be making stompy shakes with.
There's another golem out there named Chicxulub.
