It is unclear from the archaeological record to what extent they had classes. Some locations appear to have been dominated by a religious caste or class. there were clearly leaders and there were different trades. To what extent this was like a class system with movement between them forbidden by custom, is unknown. They are no signs of hereditary rulers with much more wealth or different living quarters than others. The exception to this is the idea that the Chaco are might have been largely a supported religious caste. The examples of the modern and historic Pueblo people who are their descendants show not much in the way of social class. Society and power tends to be divided into clans and religious kiva societies. Certainly there is no evidence like the highly stratified societies in the Pacific Northwest with commoners, nobles, and slavery and elaborate displays of wealth.
