I think that dye was naturally purple from a Murex, a marine snail. Tyre was famous for the production of the dye. It is Royal purple
Indigo is produced from the plant Indigofera tinctoria. They tried to grow it on a plantation on Cumberland Island but couldn’t make of it

The Han Chinese [92% of all Chinese] are the only humans to have perfectly round nostrils. All other humans (including all other Oriental Asians) have the oval nostrils.
Since the Siberian hunter groups are NOT Han, they haven't the round nostrils.
That was useless bit of information #494853. :o)

Love Is Blue
Paul Mauriat
Album Love Is Blue
Blue, blue, my world is blue
Blue is my world now I’m without you
Gray, gray, my life is gray
Cold is my heart since you went away
Red, red, my eyes are red
Crying for you alone in my bed
Green, green, my jealous heart
I doubted you and now we’re apart
When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone
Black, black, the nights I’ve known
Longing for you so lost and alone

The Egyptians made paint from Lapis Lazuli, and it’s still used today.

Ask Ruth Ginsburg. I hear she was around back then.
