Basque ethnography

Basque ethnography studies the culture, traditions, language, and social practices of the Basque people, an indigenous group primarily inhabiting regions in Spain and France. It explores their unique language (Euskara), folklore, festivals, craftsmanship, and social organization, aiming to understand their distinct cultural identity and historical development. Ethnographers analyze how Basque customs have persisted or evolved amid external influences, helping preserve and promote their heritage. This field provides insights into how the Basque people maintain a strong sense of identity through their shared cultural practices and language.
