The Code of Hammurabi, on stele.
Code on clay tablet
Code on diorite stele
The Code of Hammurabi (Codex Hammurabi) is a well-preserved ancient law code, created ca. 1790 BC (middle chronology) in ancient Babylon. It was enacted by the sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, and partial copies exist on a human-sized stone stele and various clay tablets. The Code consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye" as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man.[1]
One nearly complete example of the Code survives today, on a diorite stele[2] in the shape of a huge index finger, 2.25 m or 7.4 ft tall (see images at right). The Code is inscribed in the Akkadian language, of the common people, using cuneiform script carved into the stele[3] (on display in the Louvre).
