But what color is that? Indian red to me is a iron oxide red-- there is a clay out cropping not far from where i live (in a state park) and you can find "indaian paint pots" small round lumps of clay that have rock like out crusts-- you break them open, and the clay inside has become creamy and soft-- and can be use to "Paint" your face-- (there are also ocher ones, with yellow paint). the red of the indian paint pots to me is indian red-- a red iron oxide.
Is Eygptian red also a red oxide? (which is also known as barn red-- since iron oxide pigment has great staying power, and a when you painted a barn red, you didn't have to repaint it to often.)
