    Babylon was the capital city for two famous kings of antiquity, Hammurabi (1792-1750 BC), who introduced one of the world's first law codes and Nebuchadnezzar (604-562 BC).

    Partially excavated over the last century, much of ancient Babylon, which lies 90 kilometres south of Baghdad, remains undiscovered.
