About Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family
Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family is an 1870 book written by Lewis Henry Morgan (1818–1881) and published by the Smithsonian Institution. It is considered foundational for the discipline of anthropology and particularly for the study of human kinship. It was the culmination of decades of research into the variety of kinship terminologies in the world conducted partly through fieldwork and partly through a global survey of kinship terminologies in the languages and cultures of the world.
