About The Book
Description
Author
The Code of Hammurabi is a Babylonian legal text composed c. 1755–1750 BC. It is the longest best-organised and best-preserved legal text from the ancient Near East. It is written in the Old Babylonian dialect of Akkadian purportedly by Hammurabi sixth king of the First Dynasty of Babylon. The primary copy of the text is inscribed on a basalt or diorite stele 2.25 m (7 ft 4+1⁄2 in) tall. The stele was discovered in 1901 at the site of Susa in present-day Iran where it had been taken as plunder six hundred years after its creation. The text itself was copied and studied by Mesopotamian scribes for over a millennium. The stele now resides in the Louvre Museum.
