While morphology has been the dominant property to describe and classify galaxies, spin is emerging newly as an alternative and perhaps more fundamental property of a galaxy. Integral field unit spectros revealed that the majority of elliptical galaxies do have a substantial rotational component unlike previous understanding. I present a new result from cosmological-volume hydrodynamic simulations and discuss the origin of spin of galaxies.
