Saturnino Iztueta was
a traditional shepherd who died at 92 after spending most of his life working
on Mount Hernio. Hernio is an iconic summit in the Basque Country very popular
with the Gipuzkoans and located right at the heart of the province. The peak is
the highest point of a massif extending north-west to south-east, the summit
rising by the pass of Zelatun.
Apart from the batteries for his transistor radio, Saturnino
pretty much lived a life not different from his collegues of the Neolithic period,
3000 years ago.
