ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS - The Caucasus Mountains

The Caucasus region, on the gateway between Southwest Asia, Europe and Central Asia, plays a pivotal role in the peopling of Eurasia, possibly as early as during the Homo erectus expansion to Eurasia, in the Upper Paleolithic peopling of Europe, and again in the re-peopling Mesolithic Europe following the Last Glacial Maximum, and in the expansion associated with the Neolithic Revolution.

I am Ingush.

We live in Northern Caucasus and call ourself Galgai. Aka:
Colchis
Gargareans
Kisti
Kusti
Qalqans
Halka
Gligvi
Dzurdzuks
Gelians
Lamoor
Loamaro
Ingushians.

We are real Caucasians not like many other people living in Caucasus now who migrated here recently.
We have mountain village called Djeirah, which might be somehow related to ancient Jericho.
Our DNA Haplogroup is J2a1b (about 80% of population). Just as Arabs and Jews.
I personally believe that Arabs and Jews are coming from us through Ibrahim as.
We are the people of towers just like ancient Chaldeans.
By the way in this video our towers are shown 07:18.

Even today the swastika is our national symbol and a part of official Ingushian Republic flag.
Interesting thing is that in our ancient Ingush language we have a word “Charh” for the wheel.

‘In the region’ is not a substitute identification of a location.

This video is terrible. The pictures used are not artifacts of the correct period or even the correct region.
