"The Georgian-South Ossetian conflict forced him [Tekhov] to change his position. Now he argues that the Indo-Europeans and, especially, Iranians were the indigenous inhabitants of the Caucasus, particularly in its central part. In his new concept, Tekhov maintains that the KAC was formed mainly by the Indo-Iranians who came from the north."
