Genos
Genos (plural gene, "clan") is the ancient Greek term for small kinship groups which identified themselves as a unit, referred to by a single name. Most gene seem to have been composed of noble families—Herodutus uses the term to denote noble families—and much of early Greek politics seems to have involved struggles between gene.
