The Code of Hammurabi tells us about Babylonian culture is that hanging was not used as a means of execution
divorce was not permitted
land was evenly distributed
there were separate ranks in society
Babylonians adopted other people's children into their families in order to make sure the family survived
as a mark of respect for the national god Marduk
after they had sent their own children to join the military
if their own parents had died during military service for royalty
we conclude about The Code of Hammurabi that … the stela on which the code is inscribed is the best exhibit at the Louvre
it is merely a list of taxes and import duties
the description of different punishments for murder takes the largest part in it
imprisonment may not have been practiced as a means of punishment in Babylonia
