The Tectosages (Ancient Greek: Τεκτόσαγες) were one of the three Celtic peoples of Galatia in central Anatolia, together with the Tolistobogii and the Trocmi. They settled in the 3rd century BC in central Galatia around Ancyra (modern Ankara), between the Sangarius and the Halys (modern Kızılırmak). Their tetrarchy was absorbed by Deiotarus in the mid-1st century BC, and after Galatia was annexed by Augustus in 25 BC, Ancyra became one of the principal cities of the Roman province.
