It was priests and rulers

Answer: C

Explanation

In most ancient cultures such as the Indian and Egyptian cultures, priests and rulers ranked high on the social hierarchy.

The main reason is that rulers create laws that command order and good behavior.

With their leadership role, they made sure everyone on the hierarchy behaves as required or suffer consequences by some sort of punishment.

Priests were considered messengers of the Gods.

Just like kings they made sure people behave in an orderly manner.

According to the priests, they made sure people behave as the gods would want them to; failure to do so would result in terrible occurrences or bad luck.
