Aristotle Was the first person to create a classification system.
Aristotle
It is probably impossible to put a date on when Aristotle began to develop his classification system. Aristotle was a student in Plato's academy for 20 years from 367 BC he could have started developing his classification system during this time. In 335 BC Aristotle set up his own school in Athens he could have began his work on classification from then on - there are no definite dates.

The taxonomy of a snake is the biological classification of it's species. Snake species vary greatly, but here is an example. I'm using the Ball Python as the example:Kingdom: AnimaliaPhylum: ChordataSubphylum: VertebrataClass: ReptiliaOrder: SquamataSuborder: SerpentesFamily: PythonidaeGenus: PythonSpecies: regiusTherefore the scientific name of the Ball Python is Python regius.All snakes share the first 6 (up until Suborder: Serpentes). Everything after that varies.
Aristotle develops one of the first methods of classification based on observation of the characteristics of animals and plants. Plants were divided into shrubs, herbs, and trees. Animals were divided into aquatic, terrestrial, and aerial. The method does not apply for organisms like amphibians. Linnaeus develops the binomial system we use today made up of two words that identify the organism: genus and species.
Aristotle was often called the father of life sciences.

The original eight-level classification system was developed by Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist, in the 18th century. It is known as the Linnaean system of classification.
The classification system is named after Carl Linneaus because he was the one to come up with the idea of classifying animals and other living things.
