Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A locator map of Hammurabi's Babylonia, showing the Babylonian territory upon his ascension in 1792 BC and upon his death in 1750 BC. The river courses and coastline are those of that time period -- in general, they are not the modern rivers or coastlines. This is a Mercator projection, with north in its usual position. There is some question to what degree the cities of Nineveh, Tuttul, and Assur were under Babylonian authority. While in his introduction to his code of laws, Hammurabi claims lordship over these cities, Roaf does not include any of these in his map, upon which this map is based, and Chevalas states that "Assur and Nineveh were held for a very few years" (p. 155). Therefore, I have not included them as under Hammurabi's control in 1750 BC.
Español: Mapa de la Babilonia de Hammurabi, mostrando el territorio entre su ascenso en 1792 a. C. y su muerte en 1750 a. C. La linea de costa y los cursos de los ríos son los de ese período. El norte se encuentra en su posición usual. Existen algunas dudas sobre si las ciudades de Nínive, Tttul y Asur estuvieron bajo la autoridad babilona. Mientras que en la introducción del "código de Hammurabi" se asegura su posesión, Roaf no incluye ninguna de ellas, en cuyo mapa está basado éste.
