Tarot is a very different deck consisting of 78 mystical cards. The name TARO many believe it comes from the Hebrew word ROTA which means Wheel or from the Latin TORA which means Law or Law. Tarot is lost in the depths of time and opinions vary. Homeland of TARO is speculated by ancient Atlantis. But with almost certainty we can say that they come from Ancient Egypt.  In Egyptian, the word TORA means oracle.
