>>213045061Āryaṇs had golden-yellow skin akin to Indra's golden-yellow radiant complexion as described in Ṛgveda's hymn and verse number 5.38.2 (hiraṇyavarṇa), not pinkish pigskin.
Pink skin was the skin colour of the Mlecchás and was associated with leprosy.
Here are Giovanni Careri, the Italian adventurer's words on how they viewed the Mlecchás:
>The Indians are well shap’d, it being rare to find any of them crooked, and for Stature like the Europeans. They have black Hair but not Curl’d, and their Skin is of an Olive Colour; and they do not love White, saying it is the Colour of Leprousie. They wash often, anointing themselves after it with rich Oyls and Oyntments.
