Answer 1

The correct option is A The building of fortification walls

• Social stratification refers to society's categorization of its people into groups based on socioeconomic factors like wealth, income, race, education, gender, occupation, and social status, or derived power.
• Therefore, activities like construction of elaborate burial sites, development of silk cloth, the types of crops planted in an area and a higher demand for luxury goods all show social stratification.
