}}
The Caucasus or Caucasia is a region at the border of Europe and Asia, situated between the Black and the Caspian seas.
It is home to the Caucasus Mountains, which contain Europe's highest mountain, Mount Elbrus. Politically, the Caucasus region is separated between northern and southern parts. The southern parts consist of independent sovereign states, and the northern parts are under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation.
The region is known for its linguistic diversity: aside from Indo-European and Turkic languages, the Kartvelian, Northwest Caucasian, and Northeast Caucasian families are indigenous to the area.
==Name==
Pliny the Elder's ''Natural History'' (AD 77–79) derives the name of the Caucasus from the Scythian ''kroy-khasis'' (“ice-shining, white with snow”).〔"Natural History," book six, chap. XVII〕
