Karachays - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Karachay are a Turkic people of the Ciscaucasus, primarily living in the Russian republic of Karachay-Cherkessia.

The Ingush People To place the question of language spreads and language origins in perspective, all three indigenous language families of the Caucasus have occupied their present territories for millennia longer than any language or language family of Europe, with the possible exception of Basque, has occupied its present territory. The entire language family is indigenous to the Caucasus mountains and has no demonstrable relations to any language group either in or out of the Caucasus. Destruction of lowlands economic centers (which were politically Alanic, though we do not know the ethnic identity or language of their inhabitants) by Mongol incursions probably created a power vacuum which, after the dust settled, left the languages of the countryside and uplands -- Ingush and Chechen -- in a stronger sociolinguistic position. ingush.berkeley.edu:7012 /ingush_people.html   (3730 words)
