The first logical, consistent and scientific system for classifying living things was developed by a brilliant Swedish botanist named Carl Linnaeus in the eighteenth century. His work is still the basis of classification for all living things.
In 4 B.C.E., the Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle created the first form of classifying living things. In Aristotle's system living things were divided, based on the level of their soul, into the three classes of plants, humans and animals.

Swedish naturalist Carl von Linnaeus (1707-1778), and published in his Systema Naturae, in 1735. He defined species and introduced the convention whereby each species receives a genus and species name (as in Mytilus edulis, the edible mussel). He also grouped genera into higher categories. His scheme has been adjusted by later taxonomists to yield the following sequence:DomainKingdomPhylumClassOrderFamilyGenusSpeciesHumanDomain Eukarya Kingdom AnimaliaPhylum ChordataSubphylum VertebrataClass MammaliaOrder PrimatesFamily HominidaeGenus HomoSpecies sapiensHe also had a daughter named Anna Vernon.

Aristotle
one of the first systems for classifying things was developed about 350 B.C. by the Greek philosopher Aristotle. At the time, people recognized only about 1000 different kinds of living things. in the 1700s the Swedish scientist Carl Von Linne developed a new classification system for living things. he grouped all living things into 2 major groups: the plant kingdom and the animal kingdom. Next, he organized the members of each kingdom based on their features. this system became known as the Linnean system.

Sir Francis Galton, a British scientist, was the first person to devise a system of classifying fingerprints in the late 19th century. He created a method for categorizing fingerprints based on their patterns and characteristics, laying the foundation for modern fingerprint identification techniques.
