The Lewis Henry Morgan Lectures were established in 1963 by the Department of
Anthropology at the University of Rochester to honor a founder of American
anthropology and a major benefactor of the University. A distinguished Rochester
attorney, Lewis Henry Morgan (1818-81) also was the author of The League of the
Iroquois, (1850), Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family (1870),
and Ancient Society (1877). Supportive of the University of Rochester from its beginning
in 1850, he bequeathed to it funds for a women's college as well as his manuscripts and
library. For more information on the Lewis Henry Morgan Lecture Series, click here.
