Scientists Compared Basque DNA to Every Population on Earth — No Match Found

Scientists compared Basque DNA to populations across the entire planet
— and found no match. The Basques are unlike any other people on Earth.
Their language has no living relatives. Their genome is a frozen
snapshot of Iron Age Europe. Backed by a 2021 study from Pompeu Fabra
University analyzing 1,970 individuals and 629,000 genetic markers,
this is the story of Europe's most mysterious bloodline — and why no
DNA on Earth matches theirs.
