Dying Gaul, Roman copy of a Hellenistic sculpture of a dying Galatian warrior, wearing a torc. Capitoline Museums.
The Galatians (Ancient Greek: Γαλάται, romanized: Galátai; Latin: Galatae, Galati; Greek: Γαλάτες, romanized: Galátes, lit. 'Gauls') and Hellenogalatians (Ancient Greek: Ἑλληνογαλάται; Latin: Gallograeci) were a Celtic people dwelling in Galatia, a region of central Anatolia in modern-day Turkey surrounding Ankara during the Hellenistic period. They spoke the Galatian language, which was closely related to Gaulish, a contemporary Celtic language spoken in Gaul.
