Abstract :Today we can not see a pure ethnic or cultural structure in Caucasia. Different types of human groups in Caucasia is a result of the mixture between outsiders and local ethnic groups. Even those groups in Caucasia mixed together they couldn’t be able to build a homogenous culture because of ethnic group consciousness and religieux differentness. We can observe three sets of human groups in Caucasia: Turk originated groups, Christians and non-Turkish Muslims. Caucasian folks shared same geography, similar historical, ethnic and socio-cultural conditions for centuries, so they affected each other and became relative groups that combined around Caucasian culture. At this point of view Caucasian folks have a lot of differencies from Transcaucasian folks such as culture and sociological structureKeywords : Kafkasya, İskit, Hazar, İndo-Avrupalı, Altaylı
