dc.description.abstractThe statue of Breogán beside Corunna’s famous lighthouse, La Torre de Hércules, reminds us that former contacts between Ireland and Galicia are still alive in popular imagination. Deeper down, comparing social and territorial structures, there are some remarkable shared structures and even deeper contrasts. Galicians demonstrate distinctive DNA profiles not shared else-where on the peninsula except in northernPortugal. Also in their profile is a notable North African element – however, there is less than five per cent comparison with Irish profiles. Also outstanding is extreme localisms emphasizing intense territorial endogamy. My task here is to present an outline of the processes at work sculpting modern Galician cultural landscape change citing relevant comparative experiences.en
