The Gauls were a Continental Celtic people of Classical Antiquity, the inhabitants of Gaul (roughly corresponding to modern France, Belgium, Switzerland and northern Italy), speakers of the Gaulish language. Archaeologically, they were the bearers of the La Tène culture (5th to 1st centuries BC). In the 3rd century BC, the Gauls expanded towards the southeast in a series of invasions, including the Gallic Invasion of Greece, settling as far east as Anatolia, as the Galatians. They were conquered by Julius Caesar in the Gallic Wars in the 50s BC, and during the Roman Empire period became assimilated into a Gallo-Roman culture. During the crisis of the third century, there was briefly a breakaway Gallic Empire under Postumus, Marcus Aurelius Marius and Tetricus I. By the arrival of the Franks during the Migration period (5th century), the Gaulish language had been replaced by Vulgar Latin.
