Origin[edit]

I think this may not refer to the "reddish skin color" of American Indians (they have brown skin), but to the red ochre paint seen on the bodies and faces of North American natives, including those encountered by early settlers in eastern Canada and the United States. 204.11.189.94 16:59, 10 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
