I agree... without being flippant I thought everyone knew this. From what I have read even the young Gauis Julius Caesar used Galatian militia troops in Turkey to oppose the incursion of an eastern potentate. Even at this time these "Galatians" were still in communication with their kin in European Gaul. Of more interest, it was Galatians converted to Christianity who went to Gaul as missionaries... 300 years after their ancestors had left Gaul for Turkey.

>it was Galatians converted to Christianity

It was the Apostle Paul who went to the Galatians in response to Jesus admonition in Matthew 10:6 (and elsewhere in Matthew) to "... go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." Does that mean the Galatians were the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel???

And it was the Galatians with whom Paul had such 'trouble'.
