Subject: RE: BS: Anyone know where berets come from?
The beret is definitely basque, and I'll have to check out that site now, having stated that...

FYI, I recommend a book called The World History of the Basque. Fascinating stuff about a people who have never had a nation... while remaining a people anyway.
