In English, the word Gaul may also refer to the residents living in that area. But more often, the word refers to those who use Gaul (a branch of Celtic language family), which is widely distributed in Europe and even extended to central Anatolia in Roman times.

Gaul era:
Gaul (Latin Galli) first appeared in the pen of Roman politician Caton (BC 168), referring to Gauls who invaded northern Italy from France.
At the end of the second century BC, under the influence of Marseille, a Greek colony, and due to the trade between Gaul and the Mediterranean, some tribes in Gaul began to Hellenize and began to write Gaul in Greek. However, due to religious taboos, Gaul did not write his rich oral history into words, limiting the use of words to commerce and trade.
So after Gaul disappeared, these traditions were forgotten.
