Talodi (Arabic: تلودي) is a small town in the Nuba Mountains, and a district of South Kordofan state, in southern Sudan. The town is nearly 650 km (406 miles) southwest of Khartoum.[1] Its name is from the Talodi people of the area who speak the Talodi language.
A British garrison was located in Talodi during the colonial period, and an independence outbreak occurred in 1906.[2]
The 2012 Sudan Antonov An-26 crash, which killed 32 people on 19 August 2012, took place near the town.[1]
