Agree - it must be extremely difficult to hold on to their own Indigenous identity. But, they are doing an admirable job.

Half the population of the Basques have Rhesus Negative blood , which is very rare in the rest of the world. Im Rhesus Negative too, there are lots of theories about where it came from , but it is just as mysterious as the origins of the Basques.

Hey, I enjoyed listening to Basque, and as a Scotsman, respect the age of your heritage, as Scotland is one of the last cultural identies of Celtic. Here, we call the pre-celtic people that lived here, "Picts" who were probobly related to the Basques, and we still have stone circles made by them and place/personal names.

This is my favourite video of the Basques who are Ruisco. Their dance, singing, rhythms, love of the sea, tartans, dress are like the Celts/ Gaels.The Ruisco clades are found mainly in the western side of the United Kingdom and the whole of Europe, which shows how ancient they are. There is even a link to language in the structure of the language to Gaelic. Cynthia Allen McLaglen

Would love to give info to my 80+ yr old father.

He forgot it because his parents came as settlers to southamerica and, for some sad reason, decided to forget about their origins, language, etc. So, as a little kid, it was obvious that without someone speaking around him, he was going to forget the language, even more once he became an adult. As an old man it was so frustrating for him to know the language only in his mind. So sad, but he said this was very common among basque settlers in southamerica. I'm learning euskera because of him :)

Ancient Armenians were known to have the knowledge of smelting gold. The Basque people found plentiful gold in spain and named the land Basque or gold. Gold in Armenian is "voski" aka vosconian language or Basque language. basque > vasque > voski = gold.

I have some Basque Ancestry through my maternal 2X Great-Grandmother ,Rose Dazet.She was born in Villecomital-sur-Arros,Gers,Midi-Pyrenees,France,which is right around the Basque Country(Pays-Basque).

Meu bisavô paterno era basco , escutar esse cântico no meu dialeto ancestral , causa uma emoção que somente quem a sente , compreende !!!

Mine too. Great, great, great tho. Ibam also rh negative

It is so strange to me that I have Basque ancestry on my mother’s side and despite not being able to swim, anyone who knows me, knows that I am happiest by the sea. My mother felt the same way. I did not know about the sailor/maritime tradition in the Basque culture. Perhaps it is in the DNA to love the sea.

Me too! I'm so curious about my culture

Are these people well known for sailing in Spain? I remember reading anecdotes about basque sailors in my country and this documentary reminded me of it.

Yess!! They finally discovered a book about how basque sailors found America almost 100 years before Columbus. The book is in french, but it is clearly written how they even helped describung the routed they took and stuff

Basque people? Great sailors. Absolutely

As a member of a nation that was under foreign rule from 1102 untill 1991, I feel the pain of proud Basque people and I see many resemblence between Basques and my people. I hope your strugle for independance comes with less cost in human lives than ours had... Big respect for Basques from Croatia

we usually learn basque first, but it depends on the lenguage that you speak at the school and on how your parents speak to you. In some of the areas we speak more basque than in others.

you should write a book , your knowledge are incredible dangerous !!!

very interesting :) thanks

I'm British and I can definitely say that most of these people look British. I think we us Brits though, we're just a huge mix. I honestly don't look anything like these people, I have blonde hair and blue eyes, but my grandmother is Irish, black hair and blue eyes like many Basques. Fascinating stuff!

My grandfather is from Castille and Leon and he has white skin, black hair and blue eyes, my grand grand father was a ginger. All the north of Spain is like this, I can assure you that.

The Basques, Welsh and Black Irish have similar features which may also be shared with some Pacific islanders. Facinating.

Basque people deserve freedom and independent state Long live the Basque Country

I have Basque ancestry but did not know what Basque was until recently. I am excited to learn more about it. Would love to connect with others who are in the same position!
