What does this tell us about how ancient civilizations were connected? a Greeks invaded Egypt to steal papyrus b Each civilization invented writing alone c Ideas and technologies spread through trade and contact d People didn’t share inventions 18 In Egypt, temples were not only for worship, they owned land, stored grain, and collected taxes. Priests and pharaohs ruled together and said the gods wanted the world to stay as it was. Thinking critically, what would one say is the real role of religion here? a Religion helped the ruling class keep control by teaching people that the social order came from the gods and should not be questioned. b Religion was simply a personal way for individuals to feel connected to something greater without affecting politics or class. c Religion made priests and farmers share power equally so that everyone could take part in decision-making and trade. d Religion weakened the pharaoh’s authority because ordinary people stopped believing in royal ceremonies and turned to reason instead. 19 In Sumer, Egypt, Greece and early Rome, many gods represented local powers and forces of nature. Later, Rome adopted Christianity with one god, one truth, one empire. Thinking critically, what could this change show? a As civilizations were united under empire instead of kingdoms and city-states, the ruling class needed religion to change from local gods to one god serving one central ruler. b Religion changed because people everywhere suddenly rejected their traditions and replaced them with new stories out of curiosity. c Religion changed when philosophers discovered new planets and decided that each one needed only a single divine ruler instead of many. d Religion changed because rulers realized that having no gods at all made the empire stronger and easier to organize.
