Yes, it's definitely caucasian, however it's quaddara and not bebut.
It's from the south. I hope bigger experts will correct me, but in my opinion it is more or less "generic transcaucasian" - seeing the scabbard can help things a little bit, but it can be - northern iranian (azerbajan), georgian or armenian... |

Simply because the leather is green, I would think the Muslim origin. And, generally, Caucasians proper (not Persians, like the Azeris) preferred double-edge blades.

My first notion was that it's iranian - nowadays independent Azerbajan, or southern azerbajan, or may be shirvan (nowadays Armenia).
There were couple of georgians making such things in Tbilisi (one btw was making fake "assad allahs" in XIX century), but the scabbard does not seem to be georgian at all. |
