he Babylonians knew how to make cloth, so they wore clothes made from woven fabric. They probably also wore shoes, sandals and clothes made from leather. Many fabrics were brightly colored with natural dyes.
Because items like textiles are only occasionally preserved, archaeologists have to rely on paintings, sculptures and decorative metalwork for their evidence of what people wore in the days of ancient Babylon.
I think you are referring to Hammurabi, the sixth king of babylon. he is well know for his code of laws, a set of laws that define offenses and their punishment "An Eye for an Eye"
Hammurabi, the ruler of the greatest Babylon who chiefly established the world's first metropolis. Hammurabi has been preserved and today we can still study him as a remarkable king. From 1795-1750 BC, Hammurabi created the Hammurabi code of laws also known as the code of Hammurabi. He created at least 282 laws for the people of Mesopotamia to follow.
He extended his empire northward from the Persian Gulf through the Tigris and Euphrates river valleys and westward to the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. Hammurabi while he was ruler had artisans carve nearly 300 laws on a stone pillar for all to see. The code was the first important attempt by a ruler to codify or arrange and set down in writing all the laws that would govern a state. Although he was most famous for his codes, he took other steps to successfully unite his empire. He improved the system of irrigation and organized a well trained army. He repaired many temples when they needed to be and he promoted Marduk, the patron god of Babylon, over older Sumerian gods for religious reasons.
Hammurabi's codes of laws were very important when he first created them and they still are now today. His laws confided with civil laws. The branch of laws deals with private rights and matters such as business and taxes and etc. Hammurabi's code was made to protect the powerless and such as slaves and women. As Hammurabi thought an orderly household was necessary for a stable empire. His law also addressed criminal law. This branch gives offence against others, for example robberies, assaults, or murder. Hammurabi's motto was "an eye for an eye and a life for a life."
Most of these laws have been around since Sumerian times but Hammurabi wanted to ensure that everyone in his empire knew the legal principles his government would follow. Later in time Darious adapted laws from his people he conquered and like Hammurabi he drew up single code of laws for the empire.

Who is Mystery Babylon The Great spoken of in Revelation chapter 17?
ANSWER:
Babylon the Great is the control system against God.
Many scholars are quick to point out that it is false belief in the form of the standard religion. However, closer examination shows that false religion is only one component of Babylon the Great. The sea captains and sailors do not throw dirt on their heads because their favorite religion has been extinguished (Revelation 18:17-19).
Just as control was the key at the tower of Babel and in Babylon the Small, so also is the system a control system in our modern age.
Babylon the Great is the control System against God. It is banking in the form of currency control, education in the form of mind control, media in the form of opinion control, sorcery in the form of drug control, religion in the form of faith control.
"Sorceries" in Revelation 18:23 is from the Greek "pharmakeia" giving us the Greek root word for pharmacy. Most of the population of the world in general, and the United States, in particular, are ignorant of the real workings of medications (from the harmless (placebos) to the toxic and destructive).
What is the religion of the Phoenicians?
The Phoenicians worshipped a triad of deities, each having different names and attributes depending upon the city in which they were worshipped, although their basic nature remained the same. The primary god was El, protector of the universe, but often called Baal. The son, Baal or Melqart, symbolized the annual cycle of vegetation and was associated with the female deity Astarte in her role as the maternal goddess. She was called Asherar-yam, our lady of the sea, and in Byblos she was Baalat, our dear lady. Astarte was linked with mother goddesses of neighboring cultures, in her role as combined heavenly mother and earth mother. Cult statues of Astarte in many different forms were left as votive offerings in shrines and sanctuaries as prayers for good harvest, for children, and for protection and tranquility in the home. The Phoenician triad was incorporated in varying degrees by their neighbors and Baal and Astarte eventually took on the look of Greek deities.

Baal (ba'al), plural Baalim (ba'allm) [Semitic,= possessor], name used throughout the Old Testament for the deity or deities of Canaan. The term was originally applied to various local gods, but by the time of the Ugarit tablets (14th cent. B.C.), Baal had become the ruler of the universe. Baal (Hadad) is regularly denominated "the son of Dagan," although Dagan (biblical Dagon) does not appear as an actor in the mythological texts. Baal also bears the titles "Rider of the Clouds," "Almighty," and "Lord of the Earth." He is the god of the thunderstorm, the most vigorous and aggressive of the gods, the one on whom mortals most immediately depend. Baal resides on Mount Zaphon, north of Ugarit, and is usually depicted holding a thunderbolt. Baal, also known as El. In 1978, Israeli archaeologists excavating at an eighth-century B.C. site in the eastern Sinai desert found several Hebrew inscriptions mentioning Ba'al and El in the form of "Elohim," a name used to refer to God in the Hebrew Bible. Further, whenever the Jews refer to God or our God they use "Eloh, Elohaino or Elohim."

because although at first His people had forgotten Him, they cried out to Him when they were in captivity so He helped them out of there and forgave them. ANSWER 2: God wanted to punish Babylon before all of this happened. He used them to punish Israel for being rebellious, yes; but he was going to punish Babylon anyway. Once he ejected the nation of Israel out of the Promised Land, then he got back to his original work - punishing Babylon. Now, the real question is, "When will God punish today's nations who don't follow his plan?" If he doesn't punish us, today, then he would have to issue an apology to Egypt, Babylon, Assyria, and Persia!
