Talos Dome (Lua error in Module:Coordinates at line 489: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value).; sometimes spelled Thalos Dome) is a large ice dome rising to 2,300 m (7,500 ft) to the southwest of the Usarp Mountains in Antarctica.
The dome overlies the east margin of the Wilkes Subglacial Basin. The feature was delineated by the Scott Polar Research Institute-National Science Foundation-Technical University of Denmark airborne radio echo sounding program, 1967–1979.
The dome was named after Talos of Greek mythology, who assisted Minos in the defense of Crete.
