Concepts of acyclicity in hypergraphs and chordality in graphs are related by showing that a hierarchy of well-studied classes of chordal graphs corresponds to the hierarchy of classes of acyclic hypergraphs studied in relational database theory [\textit{R. Fagin}, J. Assoc. Comput. Mach. 30, 514-550 (1983; Zbl 0624.68088)].
