Clans (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tribes

'clans' is the definition.
('tribe' can be a synonym of 'clan')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tribes that I've seen before include "Social groups in traditional societies" , "races" , "Groups of people related by blood" , "Communities of primitive or nomadic groups" , "Groups of families in traditional societies" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Mirror, the King Feature Syndicate and the Evening Standard.
