All texts do not provide the same information for a researcher interested in the features of older Basque. Some texts give very little new or unknown data about the lexicon, structures, verbs etc. Other, however, despite being very short, provide valuable material.
This section shows a selection of documents which for some reason are especially rich and interesting.
