Answer 3

Caucasian is more of a reference to cranio-facial measurements than a description of colouring.  Mostly it refers to humans who's ancestry traces to North Africa, Europe, and the West Asia area. East Africans like Somalis and Ethiopians are also classed as Caucasian, as they can't easily be told apart from Europeans/Arabs from skull measurements. Probably because they have a significant amount of Arab blood in them from an Arab migration into Africa, sometime in prehistory.
