One of the main problems in studying the Ancient Iraqi civilization is the nature of its society and whether it was comprised of three or only two social classes.Many studies and papers have been appeared during the last century on this particular issue owing to the fact that there several terms which were used in Akkadian cuneiform texts denote to the different social classes in the Old Babylonian Period.
