	Babylon - CDLI Wiki
		Babylon is well known for its famous ruler Hammurapi (1792-1750 BC), whose extensive law code is now displayed at the Louvre in Paris, and perhaps better known in the biblical context as the enemy of Judah and the power that brought down Jerusalem in 586 BC.
		Hammurapi’s (1792-1750 BC) early rise to power remains unclear, but his skillful diplomatic and military dealings with the regional powers of the period, left him in control of all of Mesopotamia by the end of his reign.
		His successor, Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 BC) is responsible for much of the rebuilding of Babylon during the Neo-Babylonian period.

	Hammurabi (1792-1750 B.C)
		When Hammurabi succeeded Sin-muballit about 1792 BC he was still young, but, as was customary in Mesopotamian royal courts of the time, he had probably already been entrusted with some official duties in the administration of the realm.
		The motives that led Hammurabi in 1761 BC against his longtime ally, Zimrilim, king of Mari, 250 miles (400 km) upstream from Babylon on the Euphrates, remain enigmatic.
		By this time he was a sick man, and he died about 1750 BC, with the burden of government already being carried by his son, Samsuiluna.
