2023 - "Replications of Gaulish Toponyms in Biscay: On the Etymologies of Gorbeia, Orobio and Orozko" (Journal of Celtic Linguistics 24, 1-34)2023 •
There is a number of ethnonyms, toponyms and hydronyms in the central-northern part of the Iberian Peninsula which have been traditionally accounted for, with varying degrees of reliability, as names given by settlers coming from northern Gaul in the third century bc. Thus, the Suessiones may have provided the base for the ethnonym Suessetani (Huesca) and the site Suestatio (Araba). They may also have brought the name Corbio mentioned by Livy as a town of the Suessetani. Similarly, the river Nervión, the ethnonym Autrigones, the divine name Vurovius, the choronym Bureba and its capital Briviesca (in northern Burgos), and some others like the Biscayan site Orobio, have been connected to the migrations of the Nervii mentioned by Caesar and related northern Gaulish peoples. All these names will be discussed and analysed in conjunction, and two new etymologies will be proposed, within the frame of these migrations, for two place names in Biscay: Mount Gorbeia and Orozko.

CELTIC MYTHOLOGY IN GALICIAN PLACE-NAMES2011 •
1. The Goddess of the Shadows. In the heart of the province of Lugo, place-names reveal the whole mythical cycle of the Celtic New Year; the beginning of the dark half of the year and the tryst between the Goddess, as Lady of Darkness and War, and the God of the Lower World. 2. The mythic battles of the Gods. In the province of Corunha, six place-names seem to offer an answer to the enigma of the Indo-European and Celtic myths concerning the war of tlhe gods; there were two battles of the gods at the beginning of time; a creational one and another one of a social nature. 3. The voyage to the Sunset. In peninsular Barbança, the Atlantic shore bear six place-names that remind us of one of the ways ancient people imagined the voyage of souls to the Other World.
The Iberian language is directly attested by ca. 2250 inscriptions spanning the period from the 5 th century BC to the 1 st century AD, distributed between Eastern Andalusia and Languedoc. Although it must be considered a non-deciphered language, a large number of personal names have been identified in Iberian texts. The document that enabled the understanding of the basic structure of Iberian names is a Latin inscription from Italy (the Ascoli Bronze) recording the grant of Roman citizenship to Iberians who had fought for Rome during the Social War (90–88 BC). The study of this document paved the way for the identification of Iberian names in texts written in local languages, on the one hand, and in Latin and Greek epigraphic and literary sources on the other. This paper provides a state-of-the-art overview of research on Iberian onomastics, by synthesising the main recent achievements along with the remaining lines of research; it also investigates our understanding of the grammatical and syntactic structure of Iberian names, and analyses the evolution of Iberian naming patterns under Roman domination, by taking into account both Iberian and Latin documents. Rezumat. Limba iberică este atestată în mod direct de aproximativ 2250 inscripții datând din secolele V a.Chr.–I p.Chr., distribuite între estul Andaluziei și Languedoc. Deși trebuie considerată o limbă nedescifrată, un număr mare de nume de persoane au fost identificate în textele iberice. Documentul care dă posibilitatea înțelegerii structurii de bază a numelor iberice îl constituie o inscripție latină din Italia (bronzul din Ascoli), care înregistrează acordarea cetățeniei romane ibericilor care au luptat pentru Roma în timpul războiului cu socii (90–88 a.Chr.). Studierea acestui document a deschis drumul identificării numelor iberice în textele scrise în limbile locale, pe de o parte, și în inscripțiile grecești și latine, de partea cealaltă. Articolul de față prezintă o trecere în revistă a cercetărilor privind onomastica iberică, sintetizând cele mai recente realizări în domeniu; de asemenea, autoarea investighează gradul de înțelegere a structurii gramaticale și sintactice a numelor iberice și analizează și evoluția tiparelor onomastice iberice sub dominația romană, luând în considerare atât documente iberice, cât și latine.
