This looks like an ambitious project; I am looking forward to how it will develop.

You might want to look at this, according to which the Basques are mainly descendants of Neolithic farmers rather than Mesolithic hunter-gatherers. Under such a scenario, a relationship between Basque and Iberian appears plausible (and there are a few vague hints that the languages might be related).

Alas, human genetics is a fast-moving science, and it wouldn't be the first time if that one turned out to be wrong in light of further research. Also, genes and languages of course do not always travel together. --WeepingElf (talk) 07:22, 21 January 2018 (PST)
