Abstract: In this study, we develop a graph-theoretic network model for genealogical data. It is based on the naming system used by the Galo tribe in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh. P-graphs are used to visually represent the genealogy. According to the analysis of the network on social network metrics, the genealogical network is a sparsely connected, scale-free network with an average path length of 11.615 and a graph density of 0.002. Only a small portion of its nodes have high centrality values. The network has three communities, twenty authority nodes, two hub nodes, and observed no relinking marriages.
