| Hammurabi's divine authority. A code of law that provides a wealth of information on people's everyday life in Mespopotamia. The code was corrupt, as it allowed for high society to simply pay bribes, but the code called for individuals of lower classes to face an eye for an eye punishment style. Not the first law code in Mesopotamia. |
