Artists and craftsmen were of higher status than farmers, but they were also under state control, working in the shops attached to the temples and paid directly from the state treasury.
Seniman dan pengrajin memunyai status yang lebih tinggi dari petani, namun mereka juga berada di bawah kendali negara, bekerja di toko-toko yang terletak di kuil dan dibayar langsung dari kas negara.
