Departure for hunting in Gaul by Evariste Vital Luminais 1821-1896

"This, then, is what I have to say about the people who inhabit the dominion of Narbonitis, whom the men of former times named "Celtae"; and it was from the Celtae, I think, that the Galatae as a whole were by the Greeks called "Celti" — on account of the fame of the Celtae, or it may also be that the Massiliotes, as well as other Greek neighbours, contributed to this result, on account of their proximity."

-Strabo's Geography: Book 4, Chapter 1.14
