bracteate, a type of ancient pendant found in northern Europe, he charted a variety of morphological categories, 
such as insignia and size. By combining the typologies thus created, he showed that these Nordic ornaments had 
developed from earlier Roman coins. Thomsen later used similar techniques with a much larger body of data and 
eventually developed the basic chronology for Old World antiquities: the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age. 
Ideas and expressive culture also proved susceptible to taxonomic analysis. The American ethnologist 
Lewis Henry Morgan gathered data from a large number of Native American tribes and created a typology based 
on their kinship terminology, which he presented in Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family 
(1871). Influenced by the evolutionary theses of Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer and by Thomsen's three-age 
system, Morgan later proposed a universal sequence of cultural evolution in his book Ancient Society; or, 
Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery Through Barbarism to Civilization (1877). In this work 
he suggested ...to the passage, the taxonomic approach ______.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct 
answer to each of the questions from 16 to 20. 
When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In
