The Oldest Code Of Laws In The World: The Code Of Laws Promulgated By Hammurabi, King Of Babylon, B.C. 2285-2242 (1903) is a historical text that explores the ancient legal system established by Hammurabi, the King of Babylonia, more than 4,000 years ago. This book provides a comprehensive account of the Code of Laws, which was one of the earliest written legal codes in the world. The code is divided into 282 laws that cover a wide range of topics, including property, family, trade, and criminal law. The text also provides a detailed analysis of the social and cultural context in which the laws were created, shedding light on the political and economic conditions of ancient Babylonia. The book is a valuable resource for historians, legal scholars, and anyone interested in the early development of legal systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
