10 points

polytheistic gods explained natural phenomena and events
it created a caste system based on occupation

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Zoroastrianism: Zoroastrianism believes in two opposing forces in the universe - Ahura Mazda (good) and Angra Mainyu (evil). Ancestral worship is more associated with some East - Asian religions. Zoroastrianism is a dualistic religion (not polytheistic), so the presence of many gods is incorrect. Moral conduct in Zoroastrianism is about choosing the path of good (Ahura Mazda) rather than just following rules in a rigid sense.
  • Greek Mythology: Greek mythology is polytheistic. The gods like Zeus (associated with thunder), Poseidon (associated with the sea) etc. were used to explain natural phenomena. It was not based on an early monotheistic religion. The caste system is associated with Hinduism (in the Indian context), not Greek mythology. Greek city - states had various forms of government (democracy, oligarchy etc.) which were not directly “formed on religious authority” in the sense that the government structure was a direct result of religious tenets like in some theocratic systems.

Answer:

  • For the Zoroastrianism question: Belief in opposing forces in the universe
  • For the Greek mythology question: Polytheistic gods explained natural phenomena and events
