Answer

Yes. The Code of Hammurabi, (or Codex Hammurabi) is a set of laws and penalties devised by the Babylonian King, Hammurabi, in approximately 1700 BCE.

Only one complete example of the codex remains today. It was discovered by Egyptian archeologist Gustav Jéquier in Iran (formerly Susa, Elam), in 1901, and is on display at the Louvre, in Paris.

The text of Codex Hammurabi has been translated from cuneiform to English. You can view a copy via Related Links, below.
