** If anyone can explain why Family Tree DNA claims that I have considerable Basque ancestry, please, help me out (LOL).
- Are all Spaniards & Portuguese (and, I imagine, most French and a sizeable percentage of Italians) now considered partly Basque?
- For that matter, when did the Basque, the oldest population in the region, cease to be of "the Iberian Peninsula"?
