Abstract
This paper gives a general overview of the extinct Basque variety from the Goni Valley, near Pamplona. Amongst Basque varieties, this is a geolinguistically central one, though quite western within Navarrese Basque. Existing Goni Valley texts from the XVIII and XIX centuries are only relatively diatopic. Goni Basque is compared here with varieties in the Pamplona area and dialects from the other side of the Andia Mountains in Sakana. The aim is to discover possible geolinguistic connections between Goni Valley variety and neighbouring ones and to determine its distinctive characteristics. The present study follows along the lines of previous dialectology work by O. Ibarra (1995), K. Zuazo (1994) and P. Salaberri (1998).
