Basque Word for Moorish what relational fabric with buru, head, buruko, relative to the head, ( buruko oihala, headscarf ) and burko, pillow to rest your head. The relationship with the burka, the veil of some Arab women to cover the face, is evident. This and other linguistic and cultural reviews have led some historians to establish connections of the Basques with the African peoples prior to the romanization. Anyway it seems to me that on the origin and identity of the Basque there are often deliberate darkness, many vested interests and sometimes fanaticism.
