Euskara: The History of a Mystery (1960 words) |
| In his article "Reconstructing the Pre-Proto-Basque Root," Joseba A. Lakarra cites the distinguished Basque scholar Antoine Meillet, who insisted that a language without relatives is a language without a history. |
| However, Lakarra points out that it is more correct to say that such a language is without a prehistory (189, emphasis mine). |
| And while it often seems that the history of Basque is lost in a nearly impenetrable haze, a handful of persistent scholars have discovered a good deal about both the language and its speakers down through the centuries. |
