Best Answer

There were people with greater or lesser social status, power and influence but they did not have social classes as in normally understood. Some families were wealthy with huge herds. Religious leaders and healers called Hataałii had status because of their learning and spiritual power. Leaders in war and peace were listened to because of their speaking skills. But none of these positions was inherited or passed on. Also, they did not give the holders power to order others around or demand resources or labor.
