(first introduced in the ‘1780s’ by members of the ‘göttingen school of history’, the term denoted 1 of 3 purported ‘major races’ of humankind (‘caucasoid’ / ‘mongoloid’ / ‘negroid’))
(in ‘biological anthropology’, caucasoid has been used as an ‘umbrella term’ for ‘phenotypically similar groups’ from these different ‘regions’, with a focus on ‘skeletal anatomy’ (and especially ‘cranial morphology’) over ‘skin tone’)
(‘ancient’ + ‘modern’ “caucasoid” populations were thus held to have ranged in ‘complexion’ from ‘white’ to ‘dark brown’)
(since the ‘1950s’, ‘physical anthropologists’ have moved away from a ‘typological understanding’ of ‘human biological diversity’ towards a ‘genomic’ + ‘population-based’ perspective, and have tended to understand ‘race’ as a ‘social classification’ of ‘humans’ based on ‘phenotype’ + ‘ancestry’ as well as ‘cultural factors’, as the concept is also understood in the ‘social sciences’)
(although caucasian / caucasoid (and their counterparts negroid + mongoloid) have been used less frequently as a ‘biological classification’ in ‘forensic anthropology’ (where it is sometimes used as a way to identify the ‘ancestry’ of ‘human remains’ based on interpretations of ‘osteological measurements’), the terms remain in use by some ‘anthropologists’)
(in the ‘united states’, the root term caucasian has also often been used in a different, societal context as a synonym for ‘white’ or of ‘european’ / ‘middle eastern’ / ‘north african’ ancestry)
