So begins the Law Code of Hammurabi, a list of nearly 300 laws etched into a two and one-half meter high black diorite pillar, discovered in 1902 but dating back to the time of Hammurabi himself (1792-1750 B.C.E).
(Offenses against the person, Offences against rights of property, Offences relating to Currency, Sexual Offenses, etc) This format of organization originated in Hammurabi's code. Hammurabi's laws are evident in our present day society because his method of thought and morals set the precedent for our own. Hammurabi based his code on principles like, the strong should not injure the weak, and that punishment should fit the crime.
