  Code of Hammurabi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Code of Hammurabi (also known as the Codex Hammurabi and Hammurabi's Code), created ca. 1780 BC (short chronology), is one of the earliest sets of laws found and one of the best preserved examples of this type of document from ancient Mesopotamia.
Unlike many earlier and contemporary kings, he did not consider himself related to any god, although he did call himself "the favorite of the gods." In the upper part of the stela, Hammurabi is shown in front of the throne of the sun god Shamash.
The earlier Ur-Nammu, of the written literature prolific Ur-III dynasty (21st century BC), also produced a code of laws, some of which bear resemblance to certain specific laws in the Code of Hammurabi.

 Babylonia - Code of Hammurabi - Crystalinks
This is chiefly derived from a chronological tablet containing the annals of Nabonidus, supplemented by another inscription of Nabonidus where he recounts his restoration of the temple of the Moon-god at Harran; as well as by a proclamation of Cyrus issued shortly after his formal recognition as king of Babylonia.
It was in the sixth year of Nabonidus (549 BC) that Cyrus, the Achaemenid Persian "king of Anshan" in Elam, revolted against his suzerain Astyages, "king of the Manda" or Medes, at Ecbatana.
A year before Cyrus' death, in 529 BC, he elevated his son Cambyses II in the government, making him king of Babylon, while he reserved for himself the fuller title of "king of the (other) provinces" of the empire.

 Dating the Ferriby Boats
It was dated by the AMS method of radioactive assay to between 1870-1670 BC, that is several centuries earlier than the age previously estimated for the Ferriby Boats at about 1300 BC.
Only two out of the three determinations, those for F1 and F2 proved successful so that the second objective was not achieved, but figures were announced in 1998 which gave date ranges of 1890-1700 BC for F1 and 1930-1750 BC for F2, marginally outdating that for the Kilnsea plank.
Study of the incomplete remains discovered has led to suggested reconstructions which are thought to be seaworthy enough to ply the seaways of the North Sea coasts and the English Channel.

 Gold Rush Trail, Then and Now : Williams Lake
Having established a roadhouse farm at the foot of Williams Lake in 1860 Thomas Davidson sold the ranch to Thomas Menefee, a partner of Peter Dunlevy in the discovery of gold at Little Horsefly Creek in 1859.
For over 50 years, Williams Lake remained a backwater, until 1919, and the arrival of the PGE railway owner of the Williams Lake property at this time was Robert Borland, who sold the land to the Pacific Great Eastern Railway Co., giving rise to the eventual development of the town of Williams Lake.
Today the City of Williams Lake, with a population of 10, 472 is located halfway between Kamloops and Prince George, and has remained a major ranching centre through the years.
