The Gallic cock (rooster) is taken from a pun on the word Gallus - which could mean Gaul or rooster). This has sometimes led to the misunderstanding of thinking the rooster was the Gaul's symbol, but in fact collectively they had none, being largely separate tribes. It has been argued that when they did use a banner, it showed a wild boar (which would have made sense).
