Iron age languages of the Iberian peninsula such as Aquitanian, Iberian, Cantabri, and Tartessian are of a Basque substratum, the Vasconic languages, Basque which was the Canaanite language similar to Berber spoken by the Atlanteans (Atlas a grandson of Canaan), overlain when the Ice Age had ended by Indo European tongues such as of Japheth’s grandson Tarshish, his progeny who also brought a script similar to the Phoenicians’ to southern Spain beginning circa 1200 b. c.
