Saint Tallanus is thought to have been a Cornish saint. It is claimed that he was a religious hermit in the 5th century and lived at Talland between Polperro and Looe.

However, the name St Tallanus first appears in documents in the 15th century and there is some evidence to suggest that he was an invention of that period.

The pseudoarchaeology of Cornwall concerns aspects of the study of Cornwall that fall outside mainstream archaeology, history, and cultural studies. Pseudoarchaeological approaches differ from the mainstream disciplines in methodology, which often leads to very different ideas. Mainstream scholars generally do not consider the methodologies used in pseudoarcheology to be valid, since they do not follow the scientific method.
