"Why Euskera resisted the Indo-European and later Roman and other invasions and finally the onslaught of the Spanish language is also a mystery."
It's a fascinating subject.
If the Celtic dialects are known to linguists and relate to other languages, then this suggests that these people preceded the Celts in Europe, and perhaps were driven back into the district they're in now by the invading Celts.

Celtic is a subfamily of the Indo-european languages, so that is pretty much what the article said.
