I think that the value in the reason why the punishments for the crime was known to all in the Hammurabi code was so that it would  prevent society from descending into chaos and disorder.

<h3>What was the Hammurabi code?</h3>

The Babylonian monarch Hammurabi, who ruled from 1792 to 1750 B.C., established the Code of Hammurabi, one of the first and most comprehensive written law systems. Along the Euphrates River, Hammurabi developed the city-state of Babylon to encompass all of southern Mesopotamia.

The 282 rules that make up the Hammurabi code of laws established norms for business dealings and defined fines and penalties to satisfy the demands of justice. A large, finger-shaped black stone stele (pillar) with Hammurabi's Code inscribed on it was plundered by invaders and only recently found in 1901.

Diorite, a sturdy but extremely challenging stone to carve, was used to create the black stone stele that holds the Code of Hammurabi.

The great wall served largely as a first line of defense and warning and was not seen as an impenetrable barrier. What is there
kumpel [21]

The famous Great Wall of China is considered to be the first line of defense and warning and was not even seen as an impenetrable barrier to those nomadic invaders and tribes. The view of the Great Wall was a vast plain of northern China that extends more than 300,000 sq. kilometers to the south.

Moreover, the region was comprised of coastal lowlands, Piedmont tablelands, highlands prairies and enormous mountains extending approximately 3170 miles from east to west. With this massive land mass and wide variations in climate and environmental factors such as unpredictable water currents in rivers, steppes, desert lands and impenetrable ridges,  it was truly a first line of defense of China.
