Geography
Telekes sits alongside the Sárvíz stream, in the Vas hills.
There are two parts to the village: Alsótelekes (Lower Telekes) and Felsőtelekes (Upper Telekes), which were amalgamated at the beginning of the 20th century.
History
The first written record of the village is in 1255 as Template:Langx. The name originated from the noun meaning "area of fertile soil". The name of the village varied during the centuries. In 1282 it is recorded as Thelekus, in 1293 as Telukus, in 1408 as Thelekes, in 1454 as Thelekws, and in 1475 as Thelekews.
The village was owned by the Telekes family (Szepetki, biki Basó, ollári Tompa).[1]
