Re: Re[2]: [tied] Economic analysis of Indian History: meaning of Ar

 In my post, I just added the man meaning of word Ar as a prelude to stress the fact that most of the meanings offered for the word are sociological in connotation. I do not either support or condemn them, If you remember, I have added the Dowson's meaning in the same breathe. Obviously, Arya does not carry the meaning loyal  This meaning was attributed by colonial rulers to stream line the Indian thought in accordance with their goals.

the idea of the first paragraph is to stress this fact that 'hat most of the meanings offered for the word are sociological in connotation" and nothing else.

The main idea of the post, as requested in the opening line, is to gather the economic meanings attributed to word Arya.

Btw, while  I do not want to start off another round of discussion on Arthur but I can not resist the layman's urge to see that (M) Aruthi(r) (another name of Hanuman, an ape man of Rmn, known for his super natural strength) and Arthur are at least phonetic cognates.
