They come from the peninsula of Spain and Portugal (8)

I believe the answer is:

iberians

(Other definitions for iberians that I've seen before include "People from a peninsular" , "They come from Spain and Portugal" , "Western Europeans" , "Inhabitants of peninsula comprising Spain and Portugal" , "People of Spain and Portugal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
