However, the Basque language is not related in any way to the Indo-European languages. (Which still puzzles me.)

It confuses me too, are the Basque people even real Europeans?

Of course not. The rest of Spain isn't part of Europe. God just tacked it onto the end of France at the last minute.

The linguistic evidence suggests that they are early Europeans but, the DNA evidence suggests otherwise. Maybe they were/are an early exiled group of Celts?
