Hammurabi was the sixth Amorite king of the Old Babylonian Empire, reigning from c. 1792 to c. 1750 BC. He was preceded by his father, Sin-Muballit, who abdicated due to failing health. During his reign, he conquered Elam and the city-states of Larsa, Eshnunna, and Mari

The Code of Hammurabi was a set of 282 statutes inscribed in a stone monument dating to ancient Mesopotamia. Its discovery was significant because scholars realized ancient citizens of Mesopotamia had a highly-developed body of laws. This discovery led to new thinking about the ancient civilizations of the Middle East
