| | Galatia |
 | | The Roman province of Galatia may be roughly described as the central region of the peninsula of Asia Minor, bounded on the north by Bithynia and Paphlagonia; on the east, by Pontus; on the south, by Cappadocia and Lycaonia; on the west, by Phrygia. |
 | | The new province included these parts, and to it were added Paphlagonia 6 bc, part of Pontus 2 bc (called Pontus Galaticus in distinction from Eastern Pontus, which was governed by King Polemon and styled Polemoniacus), and in 64 also Pontus Polemoniacus. |
 | | They were at length brought under the power of Rome in 189 B.C., and Galatia became a Roman province B.C. This province of Galatia, within the limits of which these Celtic tribes were confined, was the central region of Asia Minor. |
