Descriere Hammurabi: A Captivating Guide to the Sixth King of the First Babylonian Dynasty, Including the Code of Hammurabi - Captivating History

\nExplore the Captivating History of Hammurabi \nThe story of Hammurabi is the story of forty-three years jampacked with conquest, temple and wall building, irrigation efforts, and lawmaking, but it's also a story of broken relations and rising and falling empires. \n \nIt's a story of betrayal and shifting alliances, a story where even the gods take a backseat to the matters of common men. It's a tale that's both thousands of years old and, interestingly enough, just as contemporary as it was when Hammurabi still drew breath. And, like all great tales of history, it's a yarn that teaches the common man that no feat of greatness comes without a price, and that human nature is just as complex as it was when Babylonians praised Marduk and hailed Hammurabi as a god in his own right. \n \nIn Hammurabi: A Captivating Guide to the Sixth King of the First Babylonian Dynasty, Including the Code of Hammurabi, you will discover topics such as \n\n \n- Babylon Before Hammurabi: Position of the City in Mesopotamia, Early Rulers \n- Rise of Hammurabi: Wars and Achievements Chronology of Hammurabi \n- Reign of Hammurabi: Babylon During His Reign, Relations to Other Cities Hammurabi's Babylon \n- Hammurabi's Character: Physical Appearance, Relations with Other Rulers, Glimpses of His Personality \n- The Code of Hammurabi and Early Mesopotamian Law \n- Dissecting the Code \n- Hammurabi's Legacy \n- And much, much more! \nSo if you want to learn more about the Hammurabi, scroll up and click the add to cart button!
