Ancient Society

Book • 2015
Lewis Henry Morgan's "Ancient Society" is a foundational work in anthropology.

It examines the evolution of human societies from primitive communalism to civilization, proposing a three-stage model of social development.

Morgan's work influenced subsequent anthropological and sociological thought, particularly Marxist theory.

His analysis of kinship systems and social organization remains highly influential.
