The Code of Hammurabi is one of the earliest and most complete written legal codes, developed by King Hammurabi of Babylon around 1754 BCE. This set of laws covers various aspects of civil, criminal, and commercial life, illustrating principles of justice and social order in ancient Mesopotamia. Known for its "eye for an eye" approach, the code provides insight into early governance, social hierarchy, and the foundational role of law in human society.
