  We report the results of an analysis of the hierarchical properties of the
cluster of galaxies Abell 119. Observational data from the ESO Nearby Abell
Cluster Survey (ENACS) are used, complemented by data from previous studies,
while the analysis is performed with the S-tree method. The main physical
system and its three subgroups with truncated Gaussian velocity distributions
are identified; due to their remarkable physical features and possible
cosmogonical mission we call these subgroups ``galaxy associations''. The mass
centre of the core of main system is shown to coincide with the X-ray centre of
the cluster. An alignment of the mass centres of the 3 galaxy associations is
also shown.
