Craftsmen: They created functional objects (like furniture, pottery, textiles), but often imbued them with aesthetic elements

Temple architects/designers & sculptors: They decorated public structures and spaces as well as created votive statues

Musicians and poets/scribes who created works associated with literary compositions like myths and hymns which praised divine characters
