Lewis Henry Morgan

    21. november 1818 – 17. december 1881

    Lewis Henry Morgan bol priekopnícky americký antropológ a sociálny teoretik, známy najmä svojou prácou o príbuzenstve a sociálnej štruktúre, ako aj svojimi teóriami o sociálnej evolúcii. Jeho štúdie o príbuzenstve viedli k jeho skorým podporám teórie, že domorodé národy Ameriky migrovali z Ázie v dávnych časoch. Morganove sociálne teórie mali vplyv na neskorších ľavicových teoretikov a je jediným americkým sociálnym teoretikom, na ktorého sa odvolávali Charles Darwin, Karl Marx a Sigmund Freud.
