This one always gets me in how dirty the sky must have been "back in the day" in order for people to see a yellow sun. I've never looked into what gas would be needed to make the sun look yellow, but it must have been hell to breathe.
Nah, the ancient Egyptians, and other cultures, depicted the sun a lot, and never made it white. Red, quite often, gold, very frequently - warm colors. If you paint a white sun people say it's the moon.
The walls were black for a reason in big cities. All those chimneys and coal everywhere.
