Téa, Tea. Queen of King Éremón, the Milesian leader, for whom Tara was named. The Fir Bolg had called the site Druim Caín, but in renaming it the Milesians made it their own. According to the pseudo-history Lebor Gabála [Book of Invasions], Téa begged her husband to commemorate her with a rampart round her grave like the one she had seen before leaving Spain. Whatever the root meaning of Téa, it was taken to be an element in the name Temair; See TEMAIR LUACHRA, residence of the south Munster kings.
