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.
Hammurabi was an ancient king who ruled a small city-state in Mesopotamia, called Babylonia. Hammurabi ruled for 42 years from 1792 BCE (Before Current Era)-1834 BCE. Around Hammurabiâs 38 year of rule, he created a law code which he carved on a large stone column called a stele.
