  Code of Hammurabi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1700 BC (short chronology), also known as the Codex Hammurabi, is one of the earliest sets of laws found, and one of the best preserved examples of this type of document from ancient Mesopotamia.
The earlier Ur-Nammu, of the written literature prolific Ur-III dynasty (2050 BC), also produced a code of laws, some of which bear resemblance to certain specific laws in the Code of Hammurabi.
The later Mosaic Law (according to the Torah redactor theory 400-300 BC; traditionally ca 1200 BC) also has some laws that resemble the Code of Hammurabi, as well as other law codes of the region.

 A Collection of Vancouver First Nations Audio Resources: Background
BC's Native people are a culturally creative society and have been the province's largest contributors to world culture (Fisher, 1992).
Researchers and scholars of BC History are not entirely in agreement as to the effect this period had on the Native peoples of BC.
The native people of BC were also subject to a number of provincial laws, Native peoples were prohibited from homesteading land and provincial public services were not extended to the reserves (Kew, 1990: 162).

 Stonehenge   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
There is some debate about the age of the stone circle, but most archaeologists think that it was mainly constructed between 2500 BC and 2000 BC.
It should be noted that by the beginning of the 20th century many of the bluestones were leaning precariously, probably due to the increase in curious visitors clambering on them during the nineteenth century.
Archaeological excavation has indicated that around 2600 BC, two concentric crescents made from holes (called the Q and R Holes) were dug in the centre of the site.

Raban didn't seem to have a very compelling reason for writing it, his superficial descriptions of life on the BC coast were annoying, and his attempts to combine an account of his travels with a failing marriage seemed clunky.
He reminds us that, whatever our grievances, BC is not a nation, it is a region, and clarifying the distinction between the two is one of the most valuable things that his book does.
