Hammurabi Code is an important legal document. Explain.

Answer»

Nearly half of the Hammurabi CODE deals with issues LIKE a contract, establishing, for example, the wages to be paid to a cart driver or a surgeon or anyone working as a labor.

Other PROVISIONS set the terms of a MONETARY transaction, establishing the liability of a builder for an establishment that collapses.

The Hammurabi code also addresses issues concerning household and family relationships and inheritance.

Only a single provision appears to impose obligations on an OFFICIAL.

This establishes that a jury who reaches an incorrect decision is to be fined and removed from the bench forever.

A few provisions address issues related to military service as well.
