You might say that, for a time, they Basqued in the light of a false heritage...
America B.C.A fascinating letter I received from a Shoshone Indian who had been traveling in the Basque country of Spain tells of his recognition of Shoshone words over there, including his own name, whose Shoshone meaning proved to match the meaning attached to a similar word by the modern Basques. Unfortunately I mislaid this interesting letter. If the Shoshone scholar who wrote to me should chance to see these words I hope he will forgive me and contact me again. The modern Basque settlers of Idaho may perhaps bring forth a linguist to investigate matters raised in this chapter. [p 173]

Don’t put all your Eggs in one Basquet nor all your Basques in one Exit.
I’m no big fan of the Basques either way and eschew their methods but there exists today in academia are strong presence of folks who live to squash any nationalistic reference.
Nationalism today is equated with facism.
Basque has always interested me. I have read the language might be related to Georgian, Chechen Inuit, Navajo, and Apache. It would not surprise me if Welsh and Gaelic has Basque influence. Famous Basques are:
Ignatius of Loyola
Francis Xavier
Simón Bolívar
Evita Peron
Princess Maxmima of Netherlands
Augusto Pinochet
Ernesto “Che” Guevara
Ted Williams
Cristina Saralegui-Cristina on Univision
The Nazis were notorious for faking archaeological discoveries meant to validate their Aryan Master Race theories.
