A Kuban Cossack -- Physically, the tall, Rugged Cossacks Dwarf the Europeans. This stalwart comes from Kuba, in the Caucasian mountains. The name Cossack derives from "Kasak," Tartar word for wanderer, and stems from the Nomadic life led by these Russians when they herded cattle and horses in the steppes. May 12, 1941. (Photo by ACME).
