  • Tailteann Games (znane też jako Áenach Tailteann, Aonach Tailteann) – irlandzkie zawody sportowe (igrzyska pogrzebowe) rozgrywane od czasów starożytnych w miejscowości (irl. Tailtin) w hrabstwie Meath. W miejscowości , znajdują się wały ziemne datowane na epokę żelaza, w okolicach których rozgrywano igrzyska do czasów średniowiecznych. (pl)
  • Les Tailteann Games sont un ancien festival sportif et culturel jadis tenu en Irlande en l'honneur de la Reine Tailtiu. D'après la légende, ils furent fondés au XIXe siècle av. J.-C. (en 1829 av. J.-C. très exactement), mais historiquement, ils ne furent annuellement organisés qu'à partir de 554 av. J.-C., jusqu'à l'invasion Normande de 1167-1169. La date de 1829 fut peut-être choisie (parmi toutes celles possibles du XIXe siècle av. J.-C.) pour faire un compte rond : 3000 ans se seraient ainsi écoulés jusqu'à la mise au pouvoir du fils cadet d'Henri II d'Angleterre, John, en 1171. (fr)
  • I giochi di Tailteann erano una manifestazione multisportiva, che si disputava annualmente nella cittadina irlandese di Tailteann, l'odierna Teltown (sita nella Contea di Meath a nord-ovest della capitale Dublino). L'evento si teneva durante l'ultima quindicina di luglio e culminava con la celebrazione di Lughnasadh o Lammas Eve (1º agosto). Il folclore moderno sostiene che i Giochi iniziarono intorno al 1600 a.C. e alcuni sostengono addirittura fin dal 1829 a.C. La pubblicistica della Gaelic Athletic Association, nata nel 1924, ha sostenuto una loro fondazione nel 632 a.C. (it)
