Can’t use Mongoloid any more - not politically correct.
Aryan, on the other hand, dates to the Vedic period in India (1000 B.C., give or take a few hundred years). And, of course, there are the Indo-Aryan languages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-Aryan_languages

Language roots yes. Racial characteristic no
But the modern biologists reject the idea of race based on biological characteristics

When the census guy finally cornered me after haunting my front door for 3 weeks, I gave the zaniest answers possible, and gave my race as Aryan. He did not blink an eye.
