That's what they say on their website too. I don't see an "alizarin," but what looks closest to me is Quinacridone (Crimson or Rose Lake,) no PR 83. There's a Antraquinone Orange Lake.
Schmincke Mussini has a PR 83, but listed as "Antrachinone" in their German PDF chart.

FYI, I found
this site a while back that gives some concise history about different pigments.
