Relating to or characteristic of Gaul, the ancient Celtic region that is now France, or relating to the Gallic people.
From Latin 'Gallicus,' from 'Galli' (the Gauls). The term directly derives from the name of the Celtic people who inhabited the region before Roman conquest.
The Gallic people were so formidable that even Roman generals like Julius Caesar wrote detailed accounts of fighting them—they drove the Romans absolutely crazy with their mobile cavalry tactics!
