Try the Basque people of northern Spain/southern France!. They were a tribe known as Vascones to the Romans, but may be unrelated to the Celts of Spain and France - their origins are a complete mystery, their language is not related to any other and they may have been in Europe as early as Cro-Magnon man!.

Viking is an activity, not a people, but the Danish raiders are a good idea!. How about the association that the French called the Iroquois, or the Sioux!?

How about the Welsh, who are the descendants of the original Bretons that the Romans found in 55 BC(E)!?

How about the Polynesians who ventured out to find a land that they named Hawaii!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
