Once upon a time I found a comment about Kouban. It was written by a perhaps #Chirkassian man, who wrote with a kind of hatred that #Ukrainians claim 'his' Motherland. 1. Ukrainians protect #Ukraine in the borders of 1991. 2. Do Chirkassians fight for Chirkassia?
The great once culture of Proto-Indo-Europeans used to be in the borders of modern #Ukraine and in ethnical borders of #Ukrainians (including land #RussiaIsATerroristState has captured 200 y.ago). It is speculative to claim people did not interbrid within these areas
If there had been trading between #Ukrainians and #Causcasians and #Crimean people (#Qyrymli) then there had been marriages between those people. It is certain Adygeans came to Ukraine at least 1000 ago and bdrought their culture, later been assimilated
The same thing certainly had happened withing #Crimea where at the beginning of the 17th 4/5 of the population were #Ukrainians according to the arabian author Evliya Celebi. It is around 900000 Ukrainians. Crimea is connected by Kerch strait to #Kouban and has long history
of relation with the people of #Caucasus. Just looking at some people from the Southern or Central #Ukraine you can easily see they may resemlbe people from Caucasus, having #European characteristics of face and skull
