Answer:
inscribed on stone (stone stele)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Hammurabi code is an ancient babylonian code of law inscribed on stone. It dates back to 1750, B.C., being the first written account of a law system in the extinct Mesopotanian civilization.
It was discovered in 1901, in a rock stele 2.25 m high and it represents almost a complet text in a cuneiform style. The old akkadian is the ancient language that was represented. Today it can be compared in importance as human heritage perhaps to the Rosetta Stone.
