If the concordance has any genuine connection with Antonio Tovar, it
will be a typographical error or misreading of something like 5.0%!
Using the data at www.rosettaproject.org , I did a quick comparison
of the first Basque and Tamil 100-word lists I found. Only 12 items
seemed worth taking a second look at, and that was being charitable.

Isn't the claim that A. Tovar found such a high concordance a libel?
