== Морган и етнологията ==
Морган проявява жив интерес към [[индианци]]те, населяващи неговия регион и спомага за учредяването на клуба ''Велекия орден на ирокезите'' ([[английски език|англ.]] ''Grand Order of the Iroquois''), чиято цел е популяризиране интереса към [[ирокези]]те. Формално е приет за член на в тяхното общество като бива осиновен от ирокезкото племе [[сенека (ирокези)|сенека]] с името ''Тейедейоуку'' (името ''Tayadaowuhkuh'' носи смисъла на „изглаждащ различията“ между бѐлите и ирокезите).
Morgan became interested in the [[Native Americans in the United States|Native Americans]] of his region and helped form a club (Grand Order of the Iroquois) to promote the interests of the local group, the [[Iroquois]]. He was formally incorporated into their society as an adopted member of the Iroquois tribe with the name ''Tayadaowuhkuh'', meaning ''bridging the gap'' (between the Iroquois and the [[whites]]).
 
With the help of his [[Seneca tribe]] friend [[Ely S. Parker]] of the Tonawanda Creek Reservation, he studied the culture of the Iroquois and produced the book, ''The League of the Ho-de-no-sau-nee or [[Iroquois]]'' (1851). This volume became one of the earliest examples of [[ethnography]], and these initial researches led him to consider more general questions of human social organization. In keeping with the general interest in social evolution common to his times, he began publishing books such as his seminal ''Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity'' (1871) and ''Houses and House-lives of the American Aborigines'' (1881). His goal was to explain the wide variety of [[kinship]] systems in indigenous societies as different stages in human evolution and social development.
