Answer: Hammurabi's Code

Explanation:

Hammurabi's code is one of the earliest known legal 'documents' in known history upon which a code of laws was written. It was named Hammurabi's code as it was written during the reign of King Hammurabi of Babylonia.

The code is notable for having some of the earliest basis for the law of retribution or simply put, the idea of "an eye for an eye" by including examples of scenarios where the law would be applied. For instance, the code talks about how a man who steals a cow must pay it back 30 times.
