On the upper part is a relief in which the king, standing in the traditional attitude of worship, with his right arm bared and raised, is represented in the act of receiving the laws from Shamash to Sun-god. "CAST OF A BASALT STELE inscribed in ancient Babylonian characters with the Text of the Code of Laws which was drawn up by Hammurabi, a king of the 1st dynasty of Babylon, about B.C. Others are displayed in the National Museum in Tehran (2001) and other collections.Ĭopy of former exhibition label on the plinth: Basmachi: 'Treasures of the Iraq Museum', Baghdad 1975, pp. A cast was formerly exhibited in the Babylonian Hall of the Iraq Museum (illustrated by F. The present cast is one of two coloured casts of this object in the BM (2004 the second is currently at Blythe House) the second was made by BMCo as a plaster piece mould used to exist of it and made by directly moulding the original cast. If the person killed was a slave, the murderer got away with a fine.įUN FACT: in the Code of Hammurabi, the so-called law of retaliation was also valid for the law concerning wine dishonest wine merchants were actually punished by being drowned in a river.A full account of the discovery, display and significance of the original stela is published by Beatrice Andre-Salvini, 'Le Code de Hammurabi', Musée du Louvre. ![]() If a nobleman's son was killed by another person of the same rank, he could avenge himself by killing the perpetrator's son in return. In short, "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!"Įquality of the punishment only affected people of the same social level. The norm governing the majority of the laws is the so-called law of retaliation, in other words the right to inflict damage in equal measure on those who intentionally harm you. The content covers various areas of human coexistence and different categories of offenses. The text you see on the lower part is in cuneiform characters, drawn in a very elegant hand, and contains 282 laws subdivided into articles. As you can see, the two figures are portrayed in a rigid, square fashion, very "unnatural" and typical of Babylonian art which aimed at portraying scenes and characters that were easy to recognize, with little concern to make them lifelike. The upright figure on the left is Hammurabi himself, symbolically receiving the laws from the sun god Shamash, the patron of Justice, recognizable by the flames behind him. The stele is in two parts: in the upper part you can see two figures in relief, and in the lower part the text of the laws. In addition to transforming Babylon into a rich and famous capital for the whole of Mesopotamia, Hammurabi was the first sovereign who decided to convert rules formerly passed on through the oral tradition into an actual code of laws. Basalt is an extremely hard volcanic rock that's difficult to work, so the accuracy with which the legal code is engraved is even more staggering. It was engraved in Babylon, in what is now Iraq, around 1760 BC, and was returned to the Iranian city about 3,000 years later as the spoils of war. Recovered at the beginning of the 20th century in Susa, in present-day Iran, the stele is a large block of basalt over two meters high. You are in front of one of the most exciting works in the Louvre, the stele on which the so-called Code of Hammurabi - the earliest collection of written laws in the history of man - is engraved. ![]()

(Ahrens has a lot of great stuff to say about that, and I’d argue she has The stuff to say about it.) My point here is that by taking notes into a system that is designed to help me think-not tell me how to think-it does in fact help me think and helps me learn and remember. I don’t know for sure (without looking) what’s on “4c2ko 1a” but lots of ideas related to knowledge systems popped into my mind.ĭon’t be distracted by my insane, paper-slips in physical-boxes system. That would be the slip for “ Kn Owledge systems”. “4c2ko” then must be a word with first-letter K, and first-vowel O, and it has to be related to Ahrens? …that’s easy. Just four characters, but I instantly recognized the “2” as a book reference, and Ahren’s book is “ HOw to take smart notes.” Several of the ideas from the book flashed through my mind. ![]() While doing that, my eyes flashed across two addresses already on Ahren’s line…įirst, “2ho1”. Your eyes may have glassed over, but that’s just another random moment in my using the slipbox-nothing particularly interesting there. (Because “4c1ae” overflowed to a second “4c1ae(2)” and then third slip “4c1ae(3)”.) Next to her name I added “4c2se1j”. As I was writing the post, which involved Sönke Ahrens, I flipped to her name in the slipbox to add this slip’s address to things related to her. I’ve discovered that my regular usage of the slipbox is randomly, (in the sense that I have no sense of what or when to expect to bump into an idea again,) reminding me of things.įor example, I had a slip, “4c2se1j” with an idea for a blog post on it. “Oh! I need that knowledge, I guess it is important.” It all apparently causes the brain to not allow the knowledge to expire and be lost. Part of the power of the spacing is that you don’t come to expect when a particular bit of information will be reviewed. ![]() (Randomly over the years I’ve even considered dumping everything I ever wanted to learn into such a system.)

Serif typefaces are called “serifs” in reference to the small lines that are attached to the main strokes of characters within the face. You can find a diverse range of fonts under these typefaces. We will go over 6 different typefaces which are own characters. monospaced, or by more fluid and interpretational definitions, such as the mood they create. The most common classifications are by technical style: serif, sans-serif, script, display, and so on. Typefaces are also classified by other technical specifications, such as proportional vs. ![]() There are a number of different ways to classify typefaces and type families. When most of us talk about “fonts”, we’re really talking about typefaces, or type families (which are groups of typefaces with related designs). Fonts are also specific computer files that contain all the characters and glyphs within a typeface. ![]() A font, on the other hand, is traditionally defined as a complete character set within a typeface, often of a particular size and style. It’s the letters, numbers, and other characters that let us put words on paper (or screen).

Mage Tower with its doors opened once more awaits there. Deliverance Point at the southwest of it is exactly what you need. Those who haven’t played Legion actively or missed it at all may get stuck by a simple question: how to get to Mage Tower? First of all, you will need to visit a magic city Dalaran floating above the Broken Isles, just near the location called Broken Shore.
