| The `ancestor` property makes a block available inside the specified block types at any position of the ancestor block subtree. That allows, for example, to place a ‘Comment Content’ block inside a ‘Column’ block, as long as ‘Column’ is somewhere within a ‘Comment Template’ block. In comparrison to the `parent` property blocks that specify their `ancestor` can be placed anywhere in the subtree whilst blocks with a specified `parent` need to be direct children. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We should double-check that, but I believe that the other difference with the parent property is that ancestor doesn't exclude other blocks from the inserter when inside the scope of the provided ancestors.
