I'm a bit sorry, great Mark,</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
But is this really an argument?</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
I mean- example: most words for cup / bowl and so on</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
in european languages go back to roots for 'skull'.</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
Not just the Basques have an history going back to the</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
stone-age.</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
[And we are going back to a new stone-age; so let's</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
remember all those words.]</span><br style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">This no-earlobes characteristic must be real (cf. piercing of Basque<br>girls' earlobes at young age). Can this feature be attached to any of<br>the contributing races. Is it found today?</p>
