Abstract: We investigate certain classes of integrable classical or quantum spin systems. The first class is characterized by the recursively defined property P saying that the spin system consists of a single spin or can be decomposed into two uniformly coupled or disjoint subsystems with property P. For these systems the time evolution can be explicitely calculated. The second class consists of spin systems where all non-zero coupling constants have the same strength (spin graphs) possessing N1 independent, commuting constants of motion of Heisenberg type. These systems are shown to have the above property P and can be characterized as spin graphs not containing chains of length four. We completely enumerate and characterize all spin graphs up to N=5 spins. Applications to the construction of symplectic numerical integrators for non-integrable spin systems are briefly discussed.
