What's so important about the Code of Hammurabi? The Code of Hammurabi contains an extensive list of laws that have opened historians' eyes to the highly sophisticated society of Babylonia. When we think of aÂ­ncient pagaÂ­n kings, the ideas of justice and fairness probably aren't the first things to come to mind.
