NB: 1/ Latin numbers indicate Clans

2/ Arabic consequent numbers indicate sub-clans and relationship of the sub-clan to the major clan. For example: 1. Hawiye => 1.4 Gorgarte is considered as Hawiye’s fourth son who, in turn, had three children (Dame, Mohamed (Geboyo) and Mohamud) and who have since given rise to sub-clans in their own right and so on.
