R1b and R1b in greeks are from turks

Seeing something of a Hellenized savage in the Galatians, Francis Bacon and other Renaissance writers called them "Gallo-Graeci", "Gauls settled among the Greeks" and the country "Gallo-Graecia", as had the 3rd century AD Latin historian Justin.[1] The more usual term in Antiquity isἙλληνογαλάται (Hellēnogalátai) of Diodorus SiculusBibliotheca historica v.32.5, in a passage that is translated "...and were called Gallo-Graeci because of their connection with the Greeks", identifying Galatia in the Greek East as opposed to Gallia in the West.[2]

The Galatians were in their origin a part of the great Celtic migration which invadedMacedon, led by Brennus. The original Celts who settled in Galatia came through Thraceunder the leadership of Leotarios andLeonnorios c. 270 BC. These Celts consisted of three tribes, the Tectosages, the Trocmii, and the Tolistobogii.
