    Hammurabi is best remembered for the lasting contribution he made to Babylonian society by creating a set of laws written on twelve stones and displayed for all to see, the most common being "eye for eye, tooth for tooth". The laws are commonly known as Hammurabi's code.

    He was born in 1810 BC in Babylon, modern day Iraq and reigned from 1792 BC to 1750 BC. He assumed the throne from his father, Sin Muballit, and expanded the Kingdom to conquer all of ancient Mesopotamia.
