The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Yes, of course, the Hammurabi Code is a great discovery. One of the most important in history regarding a set of laws or a code to maintain order in a society.

The code was created by King Hammurabi of Babylon, who ruled the kingdom from 1792 to 1750 BC. Hammurabi was a great leader and established a code or set of laws to put order in the reign.

This code comprised of 282 rules served as inspiration and influence other codes or legislations in the next years in many other kingdoms and empires.
