I would say Armenoid (so does Coon and others), this would of coarse be previous to Mongol invasians (making the Caucasians). Those 3 men up at top are perfect examples of Armenoids...however the girls seem to have a more Ladogan (half mongol) appearance. The young girl in the blue seems Irano-Afghan to me, some of the other girls are also Armenoid...or mixed Armenoids...the man in the forground toward the bottum is a ladogan, and the two behind him are Armenoid, or even mtebid Dinaric.

No doubt there is Turkic influence

Heh, the Chechens look a lot like Serbs, the only exception I see is the more prominent noses, and a bit different pigmentation ( the dark circles around the eyes, plus the Serbs are a bit more pink skinned ).
In any case, Chechens from these pics could pass as Balkanoids or even French any day.

I didn't really know about Mongolic influence between Chechens, but I looked for some informations and I realized that it's true...
Aniway, they can have some non-Caucasoid admixture, but I would classify every Chechens and a Caucasoid type... I don't really know from what ethnicity...

The latest pics made me change my mind. These Chechens look exactly like Albanians.

RARELY they would show their Mongolic ancestry... Even those ones I would classify as Caucasians...
Btw, good looking people...
