Point away, you completely missed mine. "Caucasian" means "from the Caucasus", "Asian" means "from Asia". It's a coincidence that "Caucasian" has the word "Asian" in it, they're not from the same root words. Otherwise, either Asia would be called Asus or the Caucasus would be called the Caucasia. Look up the word "etymology", I don't think you understand the concept.

    The Caucasus is half in asia.

    So if we are being most pedantic, then 'being from the Caucasus region' does not indicate if you are from asia or not.
