 By economic meaning , I meant something connected with economy.

For eg., the noble or high born are sociological meanings. It is not necessary that the word sociology should have been in vogue at the time word arya was being used.

Frankly, I am looking for meanings that connect the word Arya with either pastoral or Agrarian economies, such as connection with Arh ( as told by Mueller- why is it no more accepted?)
