Whats hammurabis code

History

<span>The Code of Hammurabi is a set of rules or</span><span> </span><span>laws</span><span> </span><span>enacted by King Hammurabi of Babylon. The code governed the people living in his rapidly growing empire. By the time that Hammurabi's died, his empire included much of modern-day Iraq, extending up from the Persian Gulf along the Tigris & Euphrates rivers.</span>

There are as many as 300 laws that cover a wide variety of subjects: homicide, assault, divorce, debt, adoption, tradesman’s fees, agricultural practices, & even the brewing of beer!

The code is best known from a stele made of black diorite, more than 7 feet tall, that is now in the Louvre in Paris. The stele was found at the site of Susa, (now modern-day Iran) by excavators who were led by Jacques de Morgan in the early 20th century. Scholars believe that it was brought to Susa in the 12th century B.C. by an Elamite ruler who subsequently erased a portion of it in preparation for inscribing it himself.

Hope this helps! :)

3. The moon and sun both rise in the east and set
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

I would explain it based on the direction of earth's rotation.

Explanation:

To start with, earth rotation or the rotation of the earth is a term that describes the spinning of the earth around its own axis. This spinning takes place in a particular direction or pattern which is eastward (from west to east).

In other words, the earth rotates from west to east. As such, we observe that the moon, sun, planets and stars all rise or appear in the east and journey westward across the sky.

Suppose you are standing facing the east as the earth rotates, it carries you eastward and you would get to see what lies beyond the eastern horizon rising as the earth rotates.
