"There is also some cultural evidence in the Rig Veda which suggests
how the invading Aryans felt they differed from the peoples, the dasa
and dasyu, their language came to dominate, for they same has having
darker skins, `black of origin, krsnayonih (Rig Veda, ii.20.7). This
fits with the Sanskrit word used traditionally for the four-fold
division into social castes, Brahman~Kshatriya~Vasiya~Sudra, namely
varna, `colour' (Ostler 2005, p. 197, 564)."
