Corruption is not a recent phenomenon. It seems that it appeared together with the patriarchal system and was mentioned for the first time in Assyrian documents 3000 years BC and by the Hammurabi Code of laws. According to those ancient documents corruption was a criminal offence and persons involved in corruption and bribery, were severely punished.
