I know what you're saying about 'Caucasian', but I'm amused that you just happened to pick someone who personally comes from a place much closer to that Caucasus Mountains than any of my own ancestors or those of most folks reading this, to make that comment to. (I don't know whether any of silmaril's ancestors actually come from the mountains or not -- Ankara looks a fair ways from the border on a map -- but still closer than my Greek or Anglo-Saxon ancestors.) Anyhow, just amused at how things lined up here.
