Did Ancient Egypt suffer from air pollution (Smog)?
Orange Suns (Carnelian stones) in their artwork indicates air pollution (normal is golden - Aton).
Look up to the Sun during wildfire season in California or any place where they occur. It will be red or orange in color. Air pollution in Ancient Egypt came from wood burning kilns to make Faience and glass works, bread, or in Sinai Copper Mines to smelt Copper metal. Trees were rare because the people used them in industry.
