🪨 Did You Know? Ancient Headstone Wonders 🪨
In ancient Mesopotamia, steles (stone tablets) were not just markers for the deceased but also displayed laws and edicts. The most famous of these is the Code of Hammurabi, dating back to 1754 BC, inscribed on a granite stele. It's not just a monument but a historical document showcasing one of the earliest legal codes!
