Answer:

Down below

Step-by-step explanation:

I think they thought he was a good king and a god because people way back when often thought that people of higher society that showed any sort of power were gods. So same as the egyptian gods like Set or Horus. They were probably just people that had a very specific skill set and a higher status. So the egyption people viewed them as gods.
