Tālivaldis or Tālibalds (; died 1215) was a Latgalian elder, the ruler of Tālava, whose support for Albert of Riga and the German crusaders brought about his death at the hands of the native Baltic peoples.
== Biography == Tālivaldis's date of birth is unknown. He is first noted in 1208 when he fought against the Saccalians and Ugandians as an ally of the Latgalian dukes Rūsiņš and Varidots. Tālivaldis was baptised in the Eastern Orthodox faith sometime before 1208 when he was a vassal of the Pskov Republic.
