They were a written codification of law.
Well, firstly, they're completely different law sets that were written hundreds of years apart. The Twelve Tables were Rome's Constitution-like law codes. They were written and amended by many people and government terms/years. It is closer to modern law when considering the fact that it actually recognizes trial. Hammurabi's Code is a Babylonian law code collected in a timely manner by one person: Hammurabi. Despite the fact that it's older than the Twelve Tables, the Code of Hammurabi is much more specific and recognizes people's rights (aside from trial) much better.
