Hammurabi was the 6th king in the Babylonian empire . What did Hammurabi do that set hime apart from other kings? In other words, Why is Hammurabi considered so important today?


Sagot :

He is considered important today for his laws. He came up with the saying “An eye for an eye”. He set himself apart from the other kings by setting a large list of laws that caused mixed reactions. For example, one of his laws were “If a man knocks the eye out of a free man, his eye shall be knocked out too.” Some viewed his laws as cruel while others viewed them as fair.
