Trying to read the documentation, i'm looking on how to use "
threading.Lock() " and its methods "acquire() and release()" that seems
to be the solution to my issue

You can call the .join() of the download threads in the main thread, so
the main thread will wait until all download threads has finished
downloading before inspecting lista.
...
# spawn the download threads
threads = []
for k in sitecodelist:
get_data = download(k,lista)
get_data.start()
threads.append(get_data)
# wait until all download threads finishes
for th in threads:
th.join()
# now that all download threads has finished, start processing lista
...
Alternatively, you can use a threading.Queue instead of a list for
lista, to ensure thread safety without having to deal with (explicit)
locking.
