What is up with Herodotus' mention of Black Colchians?

Post Body

So I have a deep love of ancient history and love diving down rabbit holes on obscure topics so when I watch a video about the kingdom Colchis and it is sort of off handy mentioned that Herodotus says that the Colchians had black skin and where of Egyptian origin my interest is peaked. So when I try and do some research on the topic and all I find is basically people opposite sides on the political isle screaming back and forth and not really answering any questions I came her to ask is there any evidence that the Colchians were black and if so how and if not then were could these claims have come from?
