The Ibero-Caucasian phylum would also include three extinct languages: Hattic, connected by some linguists to the Northwest (Circassian) family, and Hurrian and Urartian, connected to the Northeast (Nakh–Dagestanian) family.
Family status
The affinities between the three families are disputed. A connection between the Northeast and Northwest families is seen as likely by many linguists; see the article on the North Caucasian languages for details.
On the other hand, there are no known affinities between South Caucasian and the northern languages, which are two unrelated phyla even in Greenberg's deep classification of the world's languages. "Ibero-Caucasian" therefore remains at best a convenient geographical designation.
Family name
The "Iberian" in the family name refers to Caucasian Iberia — a kingdom centered in Eastern Georgia which lasted from the 4th century BC to the 5th century AD, and is not related to the Iberian Peninsula.

Le lingue ibero-caucasico sono un'ipotetico gruppo linguistico proposto dal linguista georgiano Arnold Chikobava con lo scopo di definire dei rapporti di parentela tra le tre famiglie di lingue caucasiche, vale a dire:
[ru] Кавказские языки
Кавка́зские языки́ (устаревший термин — ибери́йско-кавка́зские языки) — условное название автохтонных языков Кавказа. В эту общность входят языки абхазо-адыгской, картвельской и нахско-дагестанской семей языков. Учёные выдвигали множество гипотез о родстве трёх семей между собой или с языками вне Кавказа, но ни одна из этих гипотез не является общепризнанной.
