As far as I know, nobody has conducted an exhaustive search
yet of possible Celtic elements in Basque using the
"unexpected" equivalences t- ~ 0-, k- ~ 0-, d- ~ z-.
There must be more cases like *teges- ~ etxe "house", carric
~ harri "stone", *deldon- ~ zaldi "(ambling) horse" waiting
to be discovered.
