Asked by Pat

The first people to allow their citizens to prosecute an offender in the name of an injured party were the:

A. Babylonians
B. Sumerians
C. Romans
D. Greeks

By book mentions that both Babylonians and Sumerians followed "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" doctrine.

I am confused on this one.

I think it was in Hammurabi's Code of Laws, thus it was the Babylonians.

My answer was Babylonians on the quiz. I got it wrong. I will not know the right answer is. They will probably post that tomorrow.

I'm sorry -- but this answer also mystifies me. Please check your book to see if you missed something.
