Hawaiian kinship, also planned to as the generational system, is the kinship terminology system used to define family within languages. planned by Lewis H. Morgan in his 1871 clear Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family, the Hawaiian system is one of the six major kinship systems Eskimo, Hawaiian, Iroquois, Crow, Omaha, & Sudanese.
Within common typologies, the Hawaiian system is the simplest classificatory system of kinship. Relatives are distinguished only by line and by gender. There is a parental brand and a generation of children. In this system, a grown-up called Ego in anthropology refers to all females of his parents' generation mother, aunts, and the wives of men in this generation as "Mother" and all of the males father, uncles, and husbands of the women in this generation as "Father". In the generation of children, all brothers and male cousins are referred to as "Brother", and all sisters and female cousins as "Sister".
In this way, a cross-cousin will be referred to as a "sibling". A correlation was found between the Hawaiian system and the prohibition of crossâcousin marriage, as the incest taboo is reflected in the semantics.
