Canon 2890 |
|
|
Sumer Law is the world's first ancient inequality system of law and language emerging from the early Bronze Age Period city-states of the Mesopotamian delta of Iraq/Iran during the reign of King Ur-Nammu (around 2030 BCE). Hence Sumer Law, is also known as the Code of Ur-Nammu. |

Canon 2891 |
|
|
Sumer Law is the first law in Civilized history to be based on the inequal premise "all crime against slaves is commercial" whereas crime against "free men" remained based on the principle of "lex talionis" or "an eye for an eye". |
|
|
|
Canon 2892 |
|
|
The principles of Sumer Law in which crime could be considered "commercial" was resurrected during the creation of the private Guilds of Florence, Genoa and Venice. However, its greatest application is through Common Law and the creation of the private Bar Guilds throughout the world that feed off the commercialization of law through their private courts. |
