Answer:

The increase in wealth generated more believers and revenue for religion and financed the construction of great architectural works.

Step-by-step explanation:

Early civilizations were closely linked to their religions and to tributes to their gods and temples. When economic wealth increased in these civilizations, the population soon attributed economic success to religion, which increased the number of faithful, donations and tributes to the gods, as a way of thanking and maintaining the blessings received. In addition, economic success stimulated the creation of buildings and major architectural works that affirmed the power and wealth of that people.
