Lewis Henry Morgan fut un anthropologue et théoricien social américain pionnier, renommé pour ses travaux fondamentaux sur la parenté et la structure sociale, ainsi que pour ses théories influentes sur l'évolution sociale. Ses études ethnographiques méticuleuses, en particulier celles sur les Iroquois, constituent des contributions significatives au domaine. Les idées de Morgan sur la parenté l'ont amené à être un des premiers partisans de la théorie selon laquelle les peuples autochtones des Amériques ont migré d'Asie dans les temps anciens. Ses théories sociales ont profondément influencé les penseurs de gauche ultérieurs, le positionnant de manière unique comme le seul théoricien social américain cité par Charles Darwin, Karl Marx et Sigmund Freud.
