Hammurabi’s Code The Babylonian ruler Hammurabi is credited with putting together the earliest known written collection of laws. The code set down rules for both criminal and civil law, and informed citizens what was expected of them If a man put out the eye of another man, his eye shall be put out If he break another man’s bone, his bone shall be broken If he put out the eye of a freed man, or break the bone of a freed man, he shall pay one gold mina If he put out the eye of a man’s slave, or break the bone of a man’s slave, he shall pay one-half of its value If a physician heal the broken bone or diseased soft part of a man, the patient shall pay the physician five shekels in money If he were a freed man he shall pay three shekels If he were a slave his owner shall pay the physician two shekels
