Science Association Aranzadi has made a discovery that can be a landmark for the history of Basque language. In an Iron Age Vascon town of Irulegi, in the region of Aranguren (Nafarroa), an inscripted bronze hand from the 1st century BCE has surfaced. It’s the longest and oldest Basque text until now. It’s written in a variation of the Iberian alphabet, adapted by Vascons to our language. According to experts, the hand could have been a lucky charm to bring good luck and shoo bad luck away. 

The first word reads sorioneku - please compare to nowadays Basque word zorioneko (for good luck, luckily).

THIS. IS. HUGE.

It’s the first Vasconic text - not single words - that has been found so omg, we’re super excited!!!
