Etymology
Tang is the name of a ruling family in China whose emperors ruled from 618 to 907. Because Chinese dynasties are often named after the family or place in power, Tang came to mean 'the rulers and the time they ruled', so we use Tang to talk about that famous period of Chinese art and culture.
