Group of people who share a common ancestor (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tribe

(Other definitions for tribe that I've seen before include "Group of related families" , "Dan maybe" , "Racial group living under chief" , "Group related by blood or marriage" , "Group of common descent, culture etc" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
