This page is one part of [the Somali clan tree](/en/society/somali-clan-tree/). It gives the Rahanweyn, [Digil](/en/society/digil/) and [Tunni](/en/society/tunni/) section of each source in full. For history, places and records, see the [Rahanweyn](/en/society/rahanweyn/) page.

## How to read it

Spellings are the source's own. In Abbink's tree, a name with a question mark "could not be confirmed from more than one source", in his words. His sign -/- means "intervening ancestors or nodes in a line are omitted". Here such a line is marked as having ancestors left out ([Abbink, *The Total Somali Clan Genealogy*, 2009, p. 7](https://hdl.handle.net/1887/14007)). Each indent is one level down: clan, sub-clan, lineage, then the diya-paying group.
