I think it is the code of Hammurabi, written by Hammurabi, one of the laws were:
•an eye for an eye a hand for hand
Which means if you cut off someone else's hand, they have the right to go to the judge and the judge can cut off your hand…
But it matters what class you are in. If a rich person cuts off a slave, it's okay… maybe the rich person has to pay one coin, made by the Lydians.
