Amorite king of Babylon who reigned approximately 1792–1750 BC, expanded Babylonian power across Mesopotamia, and promulgated the collection known as the Code of Hammurabi. All dates in this chronology are BC and follow the conventional middle chronology. Hammurabi's birth and death years are approximate; surviving evidence documents only a small number of his personal movements with confidence.
