We do not know the exact origin of the word "Tango".  Although the particular origins of the Tango are not clear,  it does go back well over 100 years.  In the 1890s,  the word "Tango" first appeared connoting a specific dance.  It is now generally believed to have been used in the old "Candombes",  or strict festivals,  held by the descendents of Black slaves.  During these festivals (Candombes),  there was much dancing to the rhythm of the 'Tang" drums,  plus curiously,  participants used the word 'Tang' for almost everything,  -the dance itself,  the drums used,  and even the places where these religious rituals were carried out.  It is quite probable that the "Tang" became today's "Tango".  (Needless to say,  the 'Whites' thought the dancing to be immoral).
