According to a tree drawn up in 1618 by Niccolò d'Andrea Giugni for his relative (parente) Cav. Vincenzio Giugni, the Galisgari with a coat of arms of four black chains linked by a central circle on a gold shield, were common ancient Roman ancestors of the Buonaguisi, della Pressa, Alepri, Galigai, and Giugni families via the Roman captain Galiano, who was related to Emperor Ottaviano [Augustus] by marriage.
