Yeah the obvious reason is because people worshiped the Sun. Almost all people around the world connected the Sun as source of life with it's warmth and light and worshiped it. Sun itself was one of the most primal gods. Even Roman emperors were routinely identifying themselves with the sun god and all his symbols: cross, eagle, fire, gold, lion, and so on. Constantine I, whom conventional history hails as the first Christian emperor, was actually a worshiper of the sun god, whose image he placed on his coins, dedicated to “the invincible sun, my guardian.”
