remember
the basque population was not the same a few thousand years ago as it is today
the original male population has been replaced by invaders
similar to neanderthals
while there is a significant percentage of neanderthal dna in us, male y-dna haplogroups connected to the neanderthals are missing in all human populations today
what was the original basque population like before half the gene pool was “replaced” by yamnaya invaders?
