I think so. Physically anyway.

[Token]

Yes, easily.

Vote is it very well or somewhat

[Proto-Shaman]

Cossack look is Tatar look. Hence no.

Kuban Cossacks mainly look slavic like Ukranians

I made a thread a while ago about cossack phenotypes https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?222988-What-are-the-main-phenotypes-of-cossacks

[Mortimer]

yes well

[Lavrentis]

You do look Slavic, so yes

[Sacrificed Ram]

Anyone could be a cossack, existed even german, british and scottish among cossacks. They were just a military division that turned into a sub-ethnicity.

I said very well.

I meant like Ukranian and Russian cossacks like Kuban Cossacks

[alnortedelsur]

I am not very knowledgeable about Cossack looks, but judging by the google pics you posted, I guess, yes, somewhat.

[Sacrificed Ram]

I pass as Cossack better than you:

[Freeroostah]

Yes very well, even though some of them are descendants of Turkic peoples like Khazars

[Decius]

Yes very well, even though some of them are descendants of Turkic peoples like Khazars

So i could pass as a slavic one, ive seen some of there genetics results they get east euro, north slavic

[Freeroostah]

Cossack look is Tatar look. Hence no.

Cossacks were formed in order to counter-attack the Tatar hordes that were pillaging the Slavic villages.

[Freeroostah]

Yeah definitely. Most of them were Ukrainian peasants who had enough with the Tatar hordes pillaging their lands. Maybe thats how the Ukrainian identity was also formed (?)

[Sacrificed Ram]

Anyone could be a cossack, much of cossacks are of Alan origin due their christian orthodoxy, but even circassians and tatars could be cossacks if they were just interested in rewards. But is said most were slavs, I don't have genetic tests.

And don't forget Cossacks live in the area of probable Urheimat of Indo-Europeans...

[Proto-Shaman]

Cossacks were formed in order to counter-attack the Tatar hordes that were pillaging the Slavic villages.

and? does it make Cossacks non-Tatar now?

[Freeroostah]

and? does it make Cossacks non-Tatar now?

Cossacks were the Slavic Eastern front against the Mongol Hordes. How could they be Tatars? :D

[Vlatko Vukovic]

Not Kazakh but Cossack :D

Not in this world. Kossacks were steppe-Turks, who hunted Slavs. Why do you want to imitate your Turkish Slave drivers?

[Pahli]

Wait what? Cossacks were East Slavs that drove out the subhumans and annihilated them in an orderly manner. Turks were and are still under Slavic rule :lol:

[n1KITA]

this guy says you're infantile for Cossack! The Cossacks people are harsh !

[Sacrificed Ram]

Cossacks were the Slavic Eastern front against the Mongol Hordes. How could they be Tatars? :D

Kipchaks were turkic-tatars that fought against mongols, were defeated and sold as slaves for egyptians as mamluks. Even Seljuks fought against mongols.

Never existed a turco-mongol brotherhood.

[Hamlet]

Nah, Cossacks are part-Tartar

[Hamlet]

Funnily enough the Cossacks are considered to have been of Khazar origin, pretty ironic when you think about it.

[Root]

Sure, as I told you three days ago.. https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?224279-Re-Classify-me&p=4708944&viewfull=1#post4708944

[Sacrificed Ram]

And Khazars a mix of hun turkics, goth germanics, scytho-samarthian iranics, caucasian and uralics.

[St. Stepinac]

Very true. Not a single part of Cossack territory unit ever had a homogeneous origin. Original cossacks originated from nomadic turkic tribes in South Russia - East Ukraine.
That's why some Slavic speakers in Balkans want to look like Cossacks so badly.

[Hamlet]

And Khazars a mix of hun turkics, goth germanics, scytho-samarthian iranics, caucasian and uralics.

He doesn't look Turkic at all though, he just looks like he's from the Balkans

[Sacrificed Ram]

Existed turkic influence in Cossacks, cossack is a turkic word, but this influence is being exagerated. They were ever most slavs.

[Peterski]

Funnily enough the Cossacks are considered to have been of Khazar origin, pretty ironic when you think about it.

But they are not, it isjust a myth similar to Jews allegedly being of Khazar origin.

[Hamlet]

You can't pass at all, I don't know why so many people think you do.

http://euromaidanpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/kubanphoto41.jpg

These people are way too Mongoloid/Tartar, I mean look at the third person on the left! You can't pass, ever.

[Sacrificed Ram]

But they are not, it isjust a myth similar to Jews allegedly being of Khazar origin.

And Poles from Samarthians.

[Hamlet]

Why not, they were horsemen after all. If not Khazar, I can easily see a Steppe origin. Cossack and Kazakh(stan) are of similar origin, and Cossack originally meant something roughly the same as nomad.

[St. Stepinac]

Cossacks do not only share the originally turkic name, many basic terms regarding cossackdom, their lifestyle, clothes, hairstyle, housing ect come from turkic languages. I don't say they were turks always and everywhere, in last centuries they've transformed to something like Russian border troops, accepting a lot of Slavic people, and being mainly Slav. Their phenomenon was very complicated, it's too simplistic to name them just a kind of Slavs.

[Peterski]

Why not, they were horsemen after all. If not Khazar, I can easily see a Steppe origin. Cossack and Kazakh(stan) are of similar origin, and Cossack originally meant something roughly the same as nomad.

All Indo-Europeans have a Steppe origin, and Proto-Indo-Europeans were horsemen.

[Hamlet]

All Indo-Europeans have a Steppe origin, and Proto-Indo-Europeans were horsemen.

Yes I'm obviously aware but don't try and ignore the fact that Turkic peoples moved into the Steppe.

[Proto-Shaman]

Cossacks were the Slavic Eastern front against the Mongol Hordes. How could they be Tatars? :D
Bro, you need history lesson :cool:

[Proto-Shaman]

Not Kazakh but Cossack :D

Only Kipchak and Oghur tribes. other Turkic tribes were not involved.

[Proto-Shaman]

All Indo-Europeans have a Steppe origin, and Proto-Indo-Europeans were horsemen.

100% agree

That is Dravidian man. Not indo-european origin.

Something like that was proto-Indo european woman.

Maybe a bit, bit darker.

[Tauromachos]

Could I pass as a Cossack yes or no

If you would receive the traditional Cossack training and get the proper Cossak dressing and
everything else a real Cossak must have then ,yes i don't see any reason why you shouldn't pass

[Decius]

I thought they were mainly slavs there seems to be debates about there orgins I have seen pics of Baltid and East Nordid cossacks

[Decius]

SO are they slavic looking or turkic tatar orgin

[Sacrificed Ram]

Existed even chinese cossacks because was very common cossacks adopt children and wives from place where they fought.

[Ülev]

they were originally one thing, but after (as Lyssyi says) 'mass liberations' their sons and descendants claim other things, wait 100 years and true Germans will belong to J2, L etc. haplos

[n1KITA]

usually the Cossacks of the Ukrainian-Russian origin! based of course

[Freeroostah]

Cossack haplogroups: Some are Turkic but most of them are Slavic

i think he has something Tatar in him.

[Sacrificed Ram]

And there also the full mongol Kalmyk Cossacks:

[Peterski]

Maybe. But I guess you could also pass as Lisowczyk:

[Vlatko Vukovic]

He asked for a real Russian Slavic Cossacks. Not for Kalmyk Cossacks or something other.

Cossacks originate from Ukraine, that mean that real Slavic Russian Cossacks could be from border with Belarussia/Ukraine. No Northern parts of Russia.

[Proto-Shaman]

Churka

are you mentally ill? or are you mentally ill?

No. More believable is that turkomongol can't understand English.

PM me your photos I'll tell you if you pass.

Quit with your nonsense, makes you look retarded.

No you don't pass at all.

[Sarmatian]

By idiots maybe.

As our old legends say we started from Tmutarakan, southernmost Rus principality established by Prince Svyatoslav after he wiped floor with Khazars.

[Vlatko Vukovic]

Cossacks can pass from Western Ukrainians to "half-Tatar" Russians. Cossacks were very mixed origin army.

So this guy can pass.
