The White race is called "Caucasian race" in the name of Georgians

«Caucasian variety. I have taken the name of this variety from Mount Caucasus, both because its neighborhood, and especially its southern slope, produces the most beautiful race of men, I mean the Georgian; ... The Georgians belong to the most beautiful nations in the world. Everywhere, at any place, there can be seen tall men and slender women with noble faces, attractive features and large beautiful eyes........., Georgians are considered to be among the bravest and the most honest nations in the world; like all other Caucasian nations, they are also hospitable and reliable, as reliable, as their sabers are, and as swift and flexible, as their stallions, courageous in warfare and kind and soft-hearted at their homes. These people produces the most beautiful form of the skull, from which, as from a mean and primeval type, the others diverge... Besides, it is white in color, which we may fairly assume to be the primitive color of mankind and because ... in that region, if anywhere, it seems we ought with the greatest probability to place the autochthones of mankind.»

Johann Friedrich Blumenbach (1752-1840)
The German anthropologist, physician, naturalist, physiologist, historian and bibliographer, Johann Friedrich Blumenbach is generally regarded as the founder of physical and scientific anthropology. He first used the word ”race” in 1775 to classify humans into five divisions: Caucasian, Mongolian, Ethiopian, American, and Malay.

Why is the term "Caucasoid" more right, than "Europoid" - because Caucasoid race is not only about skin color. it is about firstly the form of the skull. there are many Caucasoids, who are not European whites, for example North Africans (Kushites, Berbers, Ethiopians, Old Egyptians), Semites (Arabs, Jews), Sumerians, Dravidians... Caucasus in this sense, is in the middle of this people, in the center, so this is more fair. If anyone wants to separate European whites from other Caucasoids, you can use a word - Aryan or just "white". Only Indo-Europeans and Ibero-Caucasians are Aryans . but despite of the fact, that Semites, North Africans and Dravids are Caucasoid, they are not Aryans (off course in their population, there are Aryans (white Caucasoids), but Only some of them as individuals and not their whole population).
