I believe the answer is:

medici

(Other definitions for medici that I've seen before include "Italian family who ruled Florence in the 15th century" , "Famous Florentine family name" , "Noble Florentine family" , "Powerful 15th-century family of bankers and merchants in Florence" , "Noted Florentine family" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
