	Description:		In this episode, host Brandon Huebner introduces two of the more well known merchants from Mesopotamia: Ea-nāşir who lived during the time of the first Babylonian king, Hammurabi, and Lu-Enlilla from the Third Dynasty of Ur. He also explains some of the economic factors at play in the world of the Mesopotamian merchants, and examines how some the earliest law codes to have been discovered had an effect on the trade of the shipping merchants. Brandon Huebner does it again with another fascinating and impeccably researched addition to this wonderful series.
