Sumerian communities were divided by social structure. There were 3 social classes/or groups.
At the top was the upper class. They had the most money and power. In this class there were the priests, kings, government officials, and warriors. They had finer homes.
Then came the middle class. There was the artisans, merchants, farmers, and traders. If you needed something they were the ones who had stuff. Normal people lived in small mud-brick houses.
Lastly, came the lower class. They were treated harshly. They were considered the enslaved farmers, people forced to work in temples, an slaves.
The Sumerian communities were divided into city-states. At the center of each city-state there was a ziggurat. They beleived that the gods lived here. Only gods/godesses were allowed in here.
