Who was Liu Taigong?
Liu Taigong, literally meaning a senior person named Liu, was the father of Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, which reigned for over 400 years. He was honored the title Taishang Huang after Liu Bang declared himself emperor. He died at the Royal Palace of Xiang Yang in 197 BC.
His name is not clear. Some historical sources says his name is Liu Zhijia, although this name is likely chosen after Liu Bang became Emperor.
