Töhötöm, Tühütüm or in a current form also Tétény, was the head of the Hungarian tribes of the Keszi and one of the seven Hungarian tribal leaders along with Előd, Tas, Kond, Ond, Huba, under the command of Prince Álmos .

Hungarian historian of the twentieth century 'György Györffy' assumed that, according to a study of the names of Hungarian settlements, the territory under the command of Töhötöm could probably have been found south of Buda, which could have inherited it after the death of the chief Kurszán and Árpád, who was second in importance in the Hungarian Principality. According to writer Anonymous of the medieval chronicle Gesta Hungarorum, Töhötöm's grandson was Gyula, the voivode of Transylvania, who will beget Sarolta, the wife of Grand Prince Géza of Hungary, the father of King St. Stephen I of Hungary.
