Kuhn offers
Harste name of brook and village near Göttingen Germany
(G, Neumann counters with
harst "Buschwerk" Middle Low German
)
*Haristi (now Ehrsten), near Kassel Germany
Kárustos Greece
Karousa Asia Minor
Carystus Liguria
Caristi, tribe Spain
Carasae, tribe Aquitaine
Carisa, tribe Spain

so a connection with Basque is apparently possible.

So everybody's happy. Now if only some ingenuous member of Cybalist
