Who Lived In Spain Before the Romans? | Iron Age Iberia c. 1000 - 300 BC

Spain's etymology is ultimately derived from the Latin Hispania, and all the languages of the Iberian Peninsula are derived from Latin, with the exception of Basque. But what about the people who lived in Spain before the Romans invaded?

    @@historywithhilbert146 not entirely sure I agree-for instance, there remain Celtic influences in modern Spanish, as there do in modern French-in both countries the Celts were driven to the edges-Galicia and Brittany, but those both still speak Celtic languages, or languages which show a strong Celtic influence, and, of course, Portuguese, being more heavily related to Galicean, shows greater Celtic influence. The conquest by the Romans of Gaul and Iberia was, if nothing else because of its greater proximity to the centre, more complete than that of Britain, which is probably the reason more pre-Roman languages and culture survived there. Without a huge depth of knowledge, I suspect that Britain is the outlier and Gaul and Iberia the norm, where the language and culture of the conquerors simply steamrollered the indigenous languages and culture.

    Actually, Basque people are genetically related to the CeltIberians. DF27 is the parent haplogroup of celtiberians ( R-M167) which originated around 500 BC and Basques (R-M153) which originated around 0 AD and branched off DF27 after R-M167. All three haplogroups are found in modern day Basque people. Some Celtiberians were descendants from Tartesos. Check out Guarena in Spain. Its where my family originates.

    Thats a but like saying « Wow, there were Native Americans all over the Americas! » Celts were a huge and flexible collection of tribes who shared a common origin (central Asian nomad Indo-Europeans), and some some cultural, religious, linguistic and artistic similarities, but there were huge differences between the celts living in various parts of Europe. Also, the celts lived in small clans that would come together in larger tribes that would be part of larger regions, but the majority of a « normal » celt’s life would be spent in his small village clan, with a population rarely exceeding 250 people

    Well done: absolutely fascinating-you have sent me down all sorts of rabbit holes. First, could you cite your sources: they may well be in Spanish, but that just adds to the challenge! Second, the parallels between the culture in the 5th and 6th centuries BCE in Iberia and those in parts of Britain in the 5th and 6th centuries CE are fascinating: I am in process of reading Robin Fleming's Britain after Rome, and when you said the 5th and 6th centuries without specifying BCE, I thought you were talking of CE. Finally, I am interested in your pronunciation of Iberia and Iberian. Usually you are adamant that a name should be pronounced as it is by the natives (which, while complimenting the natives can cause confusion when speaking to a monoglot English speaker), but here you say the words in their accepted English form, with an anglicised initial 'i' and the stress on the first syllable, whereas I, who, as I say, usually feel it better to use the accepted English form, while adopting the English stress, use a Spanish initial 'I'. All that proves, of course, is that we all have our oddities, and the world is a more interesting place that we have! Keep up the good work, and anything further on Iberia and the Iron Age in general would be good, if only because I know so little of it, and what I do is long out of date.

    On the Basque-Iberian connection: as a historical linguist, I can affirm with certainty that counting systems are a poor diagnostic tool for genealogical relationships. Many languages borrow not only the terms themselves (think Japanese from Chinese, Greenlandic from Danish, etc) but also the systems themselves (think French from Celtic). Core vocabulary and morpheme paradigms are still the best way to establish a connection, without those it becomes very speculative.

Oñate was the founder of Santa Fe de Nuevo México. My family is from Zacatecas (where Oñate was born) because the families went back and forth between the kingdoms and provinces.

But "stabbing" is defined as "to kill . . . someone by pushing a knife or other sharp object into their body" while "thrusting" is defined as "to put something somewhere with a quick hard push."

    Great video! These pre-roman cultures are mentioned in Spanish history lessons but not in that depth and detail. I find this part of Iberian history very interesting. I didn't expect you to cover Tartessos as they have more myths and legends surrounding their culture than actual history, which makes it very difficult to research and adds mystery. Many mythical kings, monsters and Atlantis-related stuff, with influence both from Greek and Phoenician cultures. Also, Malaka (phoenician Málaga) and Mainake (greek Málaga) probably were the same city or very close, because they haven't found anything from Mainake and the current city is built over the phoenician settlement.

    About the relation between basques, iberians AND aquitanians, Julius Caesar said that the aquitans had more in common with vascones and iberians south of the Pyrinees than with the gauls. In the lands of ancient Aquitania and Northern Catalonia you can find tons of exemples of basque-aquitanian toponomy. If interested an author called Joan Coromines wrote about this in his "Onomasticon Cataloniæ". There are some similarities in basical verbs like basque EGIN/EKIN (to make) in iberian EKI (appears on a lot of pottery accompanied with a persons' name. Clear referrence of "made by X"). Also, the numerical names are nearly the same between modern basque and ancient iberian. From 1 to 100 in basque and iberian: IBERIAN BASQUE MEANING ban bat one bi/bin bi two irur hiru three laur lau four borste bost five sei/serkir sei six sisbi zazpi seven sorsi zortzi eight abar hamar(pron.= AMAR) ten orkei/orke hogei(pron.=ogei) twenty atun ehun one hundred
