Judiciary-Court Documents
Ancient Mesopotamia developed its own codes of law, which were one of the oldest in the world. In fact, the code of Hammurabi1, which is considered to be the largest organized code of law in the Near East, is so comprehensive that it is still admired. It was copied and distributed in several areas in ancient Mesopotamia. It was meant for both commoner and king and for rich or poor. Hence, it contained laws for punishment as well as laws for the compensation of he who was wronged.
