In Mesopotamian society, the social structure and hierarchy can be categorized into distinct classes. Here’s a breakdown from the highest to the lowest social class:
-
Nobility (Ruling Class) - This class included kings, priests, and high officials who held significant power and wealth.
-
Upper Class - Wealthy landowners, merchants, and priests who had considerable influence and resources.
-
Middle Class - Skilled artisans, scribes, and traders who engaged in various trades and played critical roles in society.
-
Lower Class - Farmers and laborers who worked the land or in trades but had limited wealth and power.
-
Slaves - Individuals who were considered the property of others and had no personal rights; they often worked in homes or fields.
