 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 reconstruction of Hammurabi's rule is based mainly on his date formulas (years were named for a significant act the king had performed in the previous year or at the beginning of the year thus named).
Such a policy naturally led to conflicts with the kingdom of Larsa, which was situated in a disadvantageous downstream position.
