Modern Taxonomy
Carl Linnaeus created the groundwork for modern taxonomy. He established nested hierarchy and the top three kingdoms of the system.
Carl Linnaeus is known as the father of modern taxonomy. Although a system of binomial naming had been in use for some time, it was unorganized. Linnaeus, through documented studies and publications, was able to normalize the naming system that is still in use today.
No, taxonomy was around before Linnaeus. (Aristotle I think is credited with making taxonomy a science, but I cannot be sure.) However, Linnaeus did create the system of taxonomy upon which the current system is based (i.e. the binomial nomenclature and heirarchical classification system).
