The CODE OF HAMMURABI, one of the earliest known legal documents, dates back to around 1754 BCE in ancient Mesopotamia and provides insight into the values and social structure of Babylonian society. Understanding its historical context reveals how laws were used to govern a diverse population, emphasizing principles of justice, retribution, and social hierarchy. By studying the Code, we can appreciate the evolution of legal systems and their influence on contemporary notions of law and order.
