Elucidate the social organisation of Babylonian civilization.
Answers
Answer:
Babylonia was an ancient Akkadian-speaking state and cultural area based in central-southern Mesopotamia (present-day Iraq). A small Amorite-ruled state emerged in 1894 BC, which contained the minor administrative town of Babylon.[1] It was merely a small provincial town during the Akkadian Empire (2335–2154 BC) but greatly expanded during the reign of Hammurabi in the first half of the 18th century BC and became a major capital city. During the reign of Hammurabi and afterwards, Babylonia was called "the country of Akkad" (Māt Akkadī in Akkadian), a deliberate archaism in reference to the previous glory of the Akkadian Empire.[2][3]

Hammurabi's Code tells us that there was a social pecking order in ancient Babylonia in which nobles ranked above freedmen and slaves. ... These laws and others show that women had legal protections in Babylonian society. The code also shows that people had professional and contractual duties.
