The Code of Hammurabi
[2023-08-22 18:37:40]
In ancient times, the people of Mesopotamia lived under the rule of King Hamrabi of Babylon. Hammurabi enacted his laws and regulations including 282 laws in 1750 BC. The stamp of Hamrabi is engraved on a stone and shows that the king accepted the law of the sun god Shamas. Laws and regulations encourage people to accept the authority of the king and the king attempts to give common rules to control the subject's behavior.
The Hammurabi code begins with a preface to describe when Hammurabi became king for the first time.
Actual legal scope ranges from public relations to private affairs as well as methods for humanitarian to humanitarian issues. The law includes the relationship between marriage and family, negligence, fraud, commerce, civil service obligations, property and inheritance, crime and punishment, legal procedural techniques, women, children, slave protection, fairness of business communication, public and private There are relationships. Standard procedures for arbitrating conflicts, debt relief against victims of food and drought, and lists continue to explain each of these examples in detail
Then the law code ends at the end and Hammurabi insists that he is a legitimate king:
The Code applies to Babylonian society as a whole. The penalty on code depends on the identity of the victim. Babylonian society has three classes: aristocracy, free men and women, citizens who are citizens, and slaves. The aristocracy is protected by retaliatory law, but the lower class accepts only monetary compensation.
The purpose of the Hammurabi Code is to use political power to build a common bond among different people in society. It greatly influenced the complete dependence on the rulers of their rulers and consciously endeavored to worship the king as the source of the earth's power, the sole source. It unifies empires by providing moral values, class structure, gender relations and religious standards. This is the most important contribution to Mesopotamian civilization.

Code of Hammurabi: The first mention of thirteen unhappy things and evils with myths is in the Babylonian Babylonian code (around 1780 BC), the thirteenth rule is said to have been omitted. In fact, the original Hammurabi Code does not have numbers.

Eren Korkmaz 11.10.2013 Hammurabi code In the Hammurabi code, there is a general definition of most rules ("Look into the eyes") (Code 196). It tells us that Hamurabi's justice is being handled in a strict way. Is this fair? Can you accept that time? Should Babylonian society get it? Of course these questions can not be answered, but they should be discussed several times. This is because it is one of the rare ways to rule history. In the history of Babylon, that is, in the advertisement of the Hamrabi Code, you can see that the great god of the sun, Shamash, gave Hamrabi control. "In the front there is a relief indicating that King Hanabi accepts the law of the god of the sun, Moses will receive the story of the Lord's ten words." Therefore, he and his people I believe I have the power of God. Then he used the code to strengthen sense of justice. Finally, the third class is a complete slave
