Hammurabi was a amorite king who ruled the Babylonian empire from 1792-1750 B.C. the way he gathered his laws was by sending out riders (on horses) to go to multiple towns/villages to collect rules and laws from other cities. Then they would return to Hammurabi and tell him about the rules they had collected. The ones he liked would be put on a giant brick outside of the ziggurat. The rules may not be so natural as the common rules today but they were extreme. So, if you had a ox and it killed your neighbor's ox you would have to pay one half a Mina* and if the ox killed a free man's slave the owner shall pay one third a Mina*. But the Massachusetts state laws say different. If somebody intoxicated is to operate a motor vehicle
