This is my favourite video of the Basques who are Ruisco.

Greetings and respect to the Basque people, from a country also fighting to maintain their cultural and physical existence in this world despite the odds. Hellas and Euskera, might not only have that in common !
How did you found out tho? I think it's beautiful if you would learn Basque. It is an extremly unique and special language! I really hope you already started :)
@Adam I also got 10% basque ethnicity. The last ancestor to be born in Mexico and lived in Mexico her whole life was my great grandmother and we had her do ancestry dna test when it came out years ago. It was right before she passed away. Her actual Mexican ethnicity ( Native American tribes from Mexico) was only 20%. 75 of her ancestry dna was mostly European DNA. When I checked the latest ancestry dna updates for my great grandmother her basque percentage was 20%.
I’ve been doing some research myself and it all started with the fact that during my pregnancy I found out I was an Rh negative blood type. My great grandfather is from Spain and I’m currently living in Texas with family from Mexico (Zacatecas by way of Chihuahua). I hope to get a DNA test soon. Maybe we might be related! 😮😊
i just learned my dads side ancestry is Basque,hell even my last name gives it away. something that amazed me is how my last name is actually the name of the village in the Basque country,in where the people from that village that left to the new world carried the village name as their surname, so they can recall where their from.Im just amazed in how i always thought i just had Mexican ancestry.my dads side looks so white,gingers and colored eyes.that it help me see why we looked different.
very interesting . my driver who drove me to San Sebastián today did say the Surnames are usually after Mountains , places of nature etc. This entire area is mountainous , beautiful and well kept up.
Basque people originated from the Armenians about 4000 years ago. There are over 600 words in the Armenian and Basque language that have same pronunciation and have same exact definition. 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.
Echevarria is Etxeberria in Euskera (Basque) and means New House. Most British people have some common genes with the Basques as they were thought to be a major part of the re-occupation of the British Isles after the last ice age.
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 :)

@@justhold9324 Bonsnia and Albania - both carry names that derrived from illyrian. If there should be countries in Balkan, then Bosnia, Dalmatia, Albania. These names and tribes existed before Christ, before hellenization and romanization, chrstianization and islamization. There is no "muslim" DNA and evenothough a lot Bosnians and Albanians are muslims (NOT all tho!) - their countries are *secular!* As for Albania; they were never fully hellenized, romanized, nor slavinized. Just like Basque were never romanized and preserved their roots. Why do you guys have a problem with ppl that refuse to give up their true identities and mothertongues?
@@Mario-hx7iv Actually not. Serbs and Croats are not "the same". They are linguistically the same, but language cannot reverse or change your DNA. Bosnian Croats carry a lot I haplogroup (pre-germanic) in their Genetics - the highest frequency, Serbs carry about the half like Croats (pretty much the same as Albanians). Which isn't only found in Bosnian Croats in very high frequencies, but also in _Bosniaks_ in the same frequency in ppl of Caucasus like Dargins (close related to Avars).
Doing ancestry DNA it turns out my dad is 11 percent Basque and I'm 7 percent, and also of course big percentage of Spanish and some Portuguese. Really interesting to see their culture.
I have a lot of heritage from the different regions of Spain. Basque is part of it through my fathers side. My mothers side is a lot of Galician. Love getting to know the cultures, hope to visit the regions some day.
really interesting to know more about this culture, my ancestors came from the Basque country to Argentina in the early 18th century, it's quite amazing that some of the people that appear in this video resembles quite a lot with my relatives hahaha, I'd love to visit the Basque country someday.

There are many Basque surnames in Puerto Rico my last name is Irizarry all my life until just a few years ago people would ask me where my last name originated and it wasn't until I met a gentlemen from Ohio who told it was basque.
That's wonderful that you learned where your family name originated. Maybe you will travel there one day and meet more Irizarry family. It appears to be a beautiful and stable place.
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!
I am from Nuevo Mexico USA and my Grandfather had Blond hair blue eyes, we are Spaniard Basque that came down from Iñigo Arista who had close ties to the British, I have 10% British isle DNA.
My son asked me about the region where our Xavier family is from. I knew we were Basque, but I then realized I knew nothing about the Basque people or their history. Thanks for the vid! Very informative!
I live in Louisiana, we also have an amount of people with Portuguese, Galician and Basque ancestry. Most people are either of French, or to a lesser extent, Castillian Spanish ancestry. But Portuguese, Galician, and Basque aren't too uncommon. In fact, I am 3/4ths French and 1/4th English. I am also 1/16th half French half Galician. There is also a family business that makes Cajun jambalaya, based out of New Orleans, they're called ZATARAIN's, which is a Basque surname.
Basque people descend from old iberians. One of first caucasians. Todays "Georgia" saqartvelo. They are that old when civilisation flowred Ireland was still a wild Island. They have 8000+ years wine heritage
I am spanish and I know that part of me come from Euskadi, becuase that is the old tibes that live in Europe before the Glaciar Period. they are the oldest. So we are all partly Basque.
The Basque people are suffering from French & Spanish colonialism just as Berber people are suffering from Arab colonialism. All of them deserve to build their own nations to preserve their own identities.
Took a dna test and turns out I have Basque in me even though the percentage is extremely low. But my last name is actually Basque which is really cool and I’m Peruvian 🇵🇪🇺🇸
I would LOVE to hear more about this. I just left a comment explaining my ancestry lead to us finding out our family was not Native American ( Indian) as we had been lead to believe but instead our ancestor was Juan De Basque brought here as a child & then he adopted a more English sounding name! Would love to give info to my 80+ yr old father.
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.
Long before the Celts or Gaels called themselves that, or the Spanish called themselves Spanish, an ancient people came from the east. When the warmth of spring came, they walked towards the North West. They walked to what is now called Ireland and most of Ireland have cells with the Haplogroup R1b and later another mutation came and it was R1b-10 called Ruy and came to the British Isles.Another mutation came from Basqueland and France to Ireland and it was Rox, and it was R1B-9. which 93% have in Ireland. These are the ancient people of Europe.
The Spanish, only called themselves that after the Romans, named Hispania, their newly conquered land with slaves. Ruled for about 400 years, then Arabs brought into Hispania more culture and knowledge than the Romans ever did, for 700 years. Arabs had plenty of Harems in Spain, Al andalus.
Johnny Goode Spaniards did not mix with berebers(arabs who conquered spain)....In fact they were all sent away or killed withg the catholic kings,like jews.So Spaniards are before romans....They were just soldiers and then killed or spelled out.No racial mixture with northern africa.Look at any youtube adn halogroup video and you will see Italians are more africans than spaniards.First study history man.
Ximo Castello With the exception of Basque, the tribes in Iberia lost their Native tongue. Spanish without Latin(Italy) does not exist, also there are thousands of Arabic words incorporated into spanish. Arabs are very sexual with women and for 900 years they became spanish as anyone else. So, it was a civil war backed by the Pope and Vatican army and not a "Reconquest". The Vatican murdered inoccent people.
Increible tu ignorancia.......Vamos avwer,los bereberes(arabes) fueron expulsados,no hubo mixture entre cristianos y arabes,la historia lo dice...entonces berlin seria rusa despues de la segunda guerra mundial...when the arabs went gone away ore were killed Spain was reconquered by cristians from northern Spain,french,occitan people,etc.,some german and francs.Do u see arabs in the spanish football team,Pau Gasol,fernando alonso,Fernando Torres,kasillas,have you ever visted Spain?.oh man.....so ustupid,you must be anglosaxon or yankee.Even brittish adn is more common with spaniard than with the germanic people,see some youtube halogroup DNA.
That's probably true. Everyone asks me if I am Spanish because I am dark but actually I am over 80% Irish and Scots. I only have 2% Scandinavian and it explains a lot - we've always been quite afraid of the Viking types.

Basque people are all around Spain, you have only to see that the more used last name is "García" from basque "Hartza", "Artza", "Hartze", "Harze" that means ("oso" in Spanish) and ("bear" in English).
Intrigued as of what you mean with "Mexican-American" . I understand that if you are mexican, you are american by definition (would you mind to explain a little bit?)
@@aiertxuu5310He means she is from the United States, most likely born there, but her family is from Mexico. That’s what we (People from the USA) usually refer to as Mexican-American.
I love the basque country and its traditions, and I think everyone in the basque country should be free to say if he wants to belong to Spain or would rather live in an independent Basque Country, but people, stop talking bullshit about genetics and such. Everyone who is born in the Basque Country and loves its language and traditions is also a Basque, doesn't matter if his/her surname is Garaikoetxea, Fernandez, Smith or Müller, same thing with the blood type. Only important thing is to keep the basque language and traditions alive.
Actually, the term "basque" in basque, "euskaldun", literally means "basque speaker". So in order to be a true "basque" one must speak it. That also means that no matter your genetics, place of birth, nor last names, if you speak basque, you are basque.
@@algonzalez6853 If they can speak it, yes. For example, there is a case of a pakistani (i know they are not arabs nor african, its just a relatable example) who integrated so much in a basque town that he insisted to do the driving test in basque and was one of the first in all of the basque country to do so. By the way, his basque is indistinguishable from the local dialect. PD: His name is Zishan Tariq.
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

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
I'll tell you how the Basque people managed to survive: they always name themselves after place regions in the Basque country. Like Zatarain for example. Therefore no imposters from outside cultures could try to assimilate/pretend to be Basque and uproot the Basque culture from the inside. They would easily be found out. Everyone in the Basque country knew each other because of this, and could easily tell if someone (Jew/Muslim/Roman/Visigoth) was fake, and stole their name. Smart people.
+54markl im also far foreign people to not be allowed in.their bloodline has the highest amount of rh- people in the world.our blood can be donated to every blood type in existence.
+Illuminati Nephilim I have Cajun French ancestry and am from Louisiana. There are a few Cajuns who have Basque ancestry. (not just French). So I support you guys getting independence. The Romance languages suck. It would be cool for Basques to build an Empire under their language. Kind of like Hungary. Spain is nothing more than a failed experiment.
***** Spain actually has some of the least Muslims immigrants in Europe.... It would be easy for a mass population to deport them. In France or Germany it would be a different story.
@Enrique Jauregui that's not a regular song. It's called "bertso" and it's about improvising about certain topic, in this case the Basque Country's story and hopes for freedom. The author is Jon Maia.
Iberians were from the Middle East, they were related to the Minoans and Hurrians. But the older Basques were a different branch of Dene-Caucasian ,their own branch, and we're only distantly related to them. All of the Basque words in Iberian were borrowed only.
The sister of my uncle by marriage married a Basque. He was on Franco's death list & moved to Bordeaux . We vacationed there in the 60s. I was 10 but spoke fluent French & reasonable Spanish. When we went to San Sebastian, I found Basque unfathomable.
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.
Many basque people migrated to the american continent. Many people have basque genes (mixed with other genes) in many countries in the american continent. I most likely do. Basque surnames are all over Spain and latinamerica.
The most popular surname in Spain is Garcia from Basque origin, because when moors were expelled after reconquista the colonization of South of Spain was made by North Population. This is the main cause why 90% of Spanish DNA have R1b and there are a lot of RH- blood in all spain. After that many spanish Conquerors of America were Basques like Pizarro and Others, R1b exist too in countries like Mexico, Peru, or Chile..
FERNANDO MARTÍN MARTÍN Pizarro basque?? he was spanish from Extremadura, please make sure what you say is true before writting it: es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Pizarro
Having a basque grandfather doesen't make you basque, being born in the basque country does, and he wasn't. He had some basque origin, but he wasn't basque.

How did you found out tho?
I think it's beautiful if you would learn Basque. It is an extremly unique and special language! I really hope you already started :)
Mexican and I’m 10% Basque 😭 this is awesome
@Adam I also got 10% basque ethnicity. The last ancestor to be born in Mexico and lived in Mexico her whole life was my great grandmother and we had her do ancestry dna test when it came out years ago. It was right before she passed away. Her actual Mexican ethnicity ( Native American tribes from Mexico) was only 20%. 75 of her ancestry dna was mostly European DNA. When I checked the latest ancestry dna updates for my great grandmother her basque percentage was 20%.
I’ve been doing some research myself and it all started with the fact that during my pregnancy I found out I was an Rh negative blood type. My great grandfather is from Spain and I’m currently living in Texas with family from Mexico (Zacatecas by way of Chihuahua). I hope to get a DNA test soon. Maybe we might be related! 😮😊
Same 8% Basque 15% Portuguese 25% Spanish and 52% Indigenous Mexican
i just learned my dads side ancestry is Basque,hell even my last name gives it away. something that amazed me is how my last name is actually the name of the village in the Basque country,in where the people from that village that left to the new world carried the village name as their surname, so they can recall where their from.Im just amazed in how i always thought i just had Mexican ancestry.my dads side looks so white,gingers and colored eyes.that it help me see why we looked different.

Basque people originated from the Armenians about 4000 years ago. There are over 600 words in the Armenian and Basque language that have same pronunciation and have same exact definition. 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.
Hi everyone I wish you peace and love I'm skandinavian ,Icelandic!
I have Basque ancestry on my mother’s side. The family name is Echevarria. They settled in Puerto Rico.
Echevarria is Etxeberria in Euskera (Basque) and means New House. Most British people have some common genes with the Basques as they were thought to be a major part of the re-occupation of the British Isles after the last ice age.

Respect to the Basques from England.
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 :)

@@justhold9324 Bonsnia and Albania - both carry names that derrived from illyrian. If there should be countries in Balkan, then Bosnia, Dalmatia, Albania. These names and tribes existed before Christ, before hellenization and romanization, chrstianization and islamization. There is no "muslim" DNA and evenothough a lot Bosnians and Albanians are muslims (NOT all tho!) - their countries are *secular!*
As for Albania; they were never fully hellenized, romanized, nor slavinized. Just like Basque were never romanized and preserved their roots.
Why do you guys have a problem with ppl that refuse to give up their true identities and mothertongues?
@@Mario-hx7iv
Actually not. Serbs and Croats are not "the same". They are linguistically the same, but language cannot reverse or change your DNA.
Bosnian Croats carry a lot I haplogroup (pre-germanic) in their Genetics - the highest frequency, Serbs carry about the half like Croats (pretty much the same as Albanians).
Which isn't only found in Bosnian Croats in very high frequencies, but also in _Bosniaks_ in the same frequency in ppl of Caucasus like Dargins (close related to Avars).
Doing ancestry DNA it turns out my dad is 11 percent Basque and I'm 7 percent, and also of course big percentage of Spanish and some Portuguese. Really interesting to see their culture.
I have a lot of heritage from the different regions of Spain. Basque is part of it through my fathers side.

Long before the Celts or Gaels called themselves that, or the Spanish called themselves Spanish, an ancient people came from the east. When the warmth of spring came, they walked towards the North West. They walked to what is now called Ireland and most of Ireland have cells with the Haplogroup R1b and later another mutation came and it was R1b-10 called Ruy and came to the British Isles.Another mutation came from Basqueland and France to Ireland and it was Rox, and it was R1B-9. which 93% have in Ireland. These are the ancient people of Europe.
The Spanish, only called themselves that after the Romans, named Hispania, their newly conquered land with slaves. Ruled for about 400 years, then Arabs brought into Hispania more culture and knowledge than the Romans ever did, for 700 years. Arabs had plenty of Harems in Spain, Al andalus.
Johnny Goode Spaniards did not mix with berebers(arabs who conquered spain)....In fact they were all sent away or killed withg the catholic kings,like jews.So Spaniards are before romans....They were just soldiers and then killed or spelled out.No racial mixture with northern africa.Look at any youtube adn halogroup video
and you will see Italians are more africans than spaniards.First study history man.
Ximo Castello With the exception of Basque, the tribes in Iberia lost their Native tongue. Spanish without Latin(Italy) does not exist, also there are thousands of Arabic words incorporated into spanish. Arabs are very sexual with women and for 900 years they became spanish as anyone else. So, it was a civil war backed by the Pope and Vatican army and not a "Reconquest". The Vatican murdered inoccent people.
Increible tu ignorancia.......Vamos avwer,los bereberes(arabes) fueron expulsados,no hubo mixture entre cristianos y arabes,la historia lo dice...entonces berlin seria rusa despues de la segunda guerra mundial...when the arabs went gone away ore were killed Spain was reconquered by cristians from northern Spain,french,occitan people,etc.,some german and francs.Do u see arabs in the spanish football team,Pau Gasol,fernando alonso,Fernando Torres,kasillas,have you ever visted Spain?.oh man.....so ustupid,you must be anglosaxon or yankee.Even brittish adn is more common with spaniard than with the germanic people,see some youtube halogroup DNA.
That's probably true. Everyone asks me if I am Spanish because I am dark but actually I am over 80% Irish and Scots. I only have 2% Scandinavian and it explains a lot - we've always been quite afraid of the Viking types.

I love the basque country and its traditions, and I think everyone in the basque country should be free to say if he wants to belong to Spain or would rather live in an independent Basque Country, but people, stop talking bullshit about genetics and such. Everyone who is born in the Basque Country and loves its language and traditions is also a Basque, doesn't matter if his/her surname is Garaikoetxea, Fernandez, Smith or Müller, same thing with the blood type. Only important thing is to keep the basque language and traditions alive.
Actually, the term "basque" in basque, "euskaldun", literally means "basque speaker". So in order to be a true "basque" one must speak it. That also means that no matter your genetics, place of birth, nor last names, if you speak basque, you are basque.

Basque people? Great sailors. Absolutely
I'll tell you how the Basque people managed to survive: they always name themselves after place regions in the Basque country. Like Zatarain for example. Therefore no imposters from outside cultures could try to assimilate/pretend to be Basque and uproot the Basque culture from the inside. They would easily be found out. Everyone in the Basque country knew each other because of this, and could easily tell if someone (Jew/Muslim/Roman/Visigoth) was fake, and stole their name. Smart people.

Iberians were from the Middle East, they were related to the Minoans and Hurrians. But the older Basques were a different branch of Dene-Caucasian ,their own branch, and we're only distantly related to them. All of the Basque words in Iberian were borrowed only.
The sister of my uncle by marriage married a Basque. He was on Franco's death list & moved to Bordeaux . We vacationed there in the 60s. I was 10 but spoke fluent French & reasonable Spanish. When we went to San Sebastian, I found Basque unfathomable.

The most popular surname in Spain is Garcia from Basque origin, because when moors were expelled after reconquista the colonization of South of Spain was made by North Population. This is the main cause why 90% of Spanish DNA have R1b and there are a lot of RH- blood in all spain. After that many spanish Conquerors of America were Basques like Pizarro and Others, R1b exist too in countries like Mexico, Peru, or Chile..
