Test

Lord today we have a test help us please do our best, lord today we have a quiz tell us what the answers is. We had taken a test to day we could use our blogs. I had nothing in my blog that could help me on the test. I had a whole bunch of nothing on my blog. We had questions on the test that came right out of my notes just I didn't put any of them on my blog.

Higher arkey

Today we had gone over who was more important in Babylonian society. The men were at the top they could do all the manly jobs like kill things and rule over the people. The women were seen as second class citizens the only job they had was to stay home to take care of the children and the house.The men made the rules and ran the people. Then they were separated into two different groups of people the partitions and the plebeians.  

Class discussion

We had picked out different laws in Hammurabi's code that stood out to the class. I had picked if a builder builds a house and if holds the owner pays him 2 shekels and if it kills the owner the builder dies and if the son of the owner dies then the son of the builder dies. If a man strikes a man of higher class than 60 blows with an ox hide, if you strike a patrician then you pay one mina of silver, and if you strike a man plebeian then you 10 shekels.

Hammurabi's code

Today in class we had gone over Hammurabi's code. The code was directed towards men. We had talked about Indo-Europeans like the Hittites. How the people of Mesopotamia had created the first form of writing cuneiform. How Hammurabi's code was the first written book of any law that was around that day and time.
