The correct social class hierarchy of Greek city-states, from highest to lowest, generally is:

  1. Aristoi (Aristocrats or the nobility)
  2. Perioikoi (Free but non-citizen inhabitants of a city-state)
  3. Artisans (Skilled workers)
  4. Laborers (Unskilled workers)
  5. Women (Generally had fewer rights and status)
  6. Foreigners (Non-citizens)

Based on this order, the appropriate choice would be:

Aristoi → Perioikoi → Artisans → Laborers → Women → Foreigners.

However, if we look closely at the provided options, none follow this exact hierarchy perfectly. But the option with the Aristoi at the beginning would be the closest to the typical hierarchy.

Here’s the closest option reflecting that structure:

Aristoi, Artisans, Perioikoi, Women, Laborers, Foreigners.

Always remember that the particular rankings or categories may vary slightly depending on the specific city-state and context, but this provides a general overview.
