Hammurabi, raramente citato in italiano come Ammurabi (in accadico: 𒄩𒄠𒈬𒊏𒁉 Khammurabi; dall'amorreo: Ammurapi, cioè "Ammu guarisce"; circa – ), è stato un sovrano babilonese, sesto re della I dinastia di Babilonia. Viene ricordato per aver unificato la bassa Mesopotamia in un potente impero e soprattutto per aver promulgato una raccolta di leggi nota come Codice di Hammurabi, che rappresenta uno dei primi esempi di leggi scritte della storia. Non si conosce esattamente il periodo di regno di Hammurabi in quanto le datazioni per il periodo si basano su allusioni ad eventi astronomici rintracciate in testi paleo-babilonesi dei tempi del re Ammi-saduqa, che gli astronomi hanno interpretato in modi molto diversi. Le datazioni possibili per Hammurabi sono: * 1848-1806 a.C. * 1792-1750 a.C. (cronologia media) * 1728-1686 a.C. (cronologia corta) Negli ultimi decenni si tende ad utilizzare la cronologia media.
