Galatia is a large Roman Province in central Anatolia, including where Ankara is today. The distance as the crow flies between Ankara and Jerusalem is 580 miles or 932 kilometers, however, much of this distance is over water. The on-land distance would be a bit longer (about 100 more miles or 160 more kilometers).
