| Strabo confirms that the Boii emigrated from their lands across the Alps and were one of the largest tribes of the Celts. |
|
| The Dacians drove the Boii south across the Danube and out of their territory, at which point the Boii abandoned any further plans for invasion. |
|
| In the second half of the 3rd century BC, the Boii allied with the other Cisalpine Gauls and the Etruscans against Rome. |
|
| After the loss of their capital, according to Strabo, a large portion of the Boii left Italy. |
|
| This makes it much more likely that the Cisalpine Boii had actually originated from Bohemia rather than the other way round. |
|
| Together they defeated the Scordisci, along with the Boii, many of whom apparently joined them. |
|
| When the Romans finally conquered Pannonia in 8 AD, the Boii seem not to have opposed them. |
|
| As only small numbers of Boii were left after the battle, the Aedui were obliging. |
|
| Very likely, they had been in part the Boii, who were a strong force on the Danube until they encountered the Marcomanni and Quadi. |
|
| The Boii, the most powerful and numerous of the Gallic tribes, were expelled by the Romans after 191 BC and settled in Bohemia. |
|
| The foundation of the city known to the Romans as Gesoriacum is credited to the Celtic Boii. |
|
| According to the ancient authors, the Boii arrived in northern Italy by crossing the Alps. |
|
| The Boii founded a city on the site of modern Prague, and some of its ruins are now a tourist attraction. |
|
| It remains therefore unclear where exactly the Central European origins of the Boii lay, if somewhere in Gaul, Southern Germany or in Bohemia. |
|
| More colonies were being established in the Po region, and this caused the Boii and Insubres to arise afresh who were now aware that Hannibal was heading to them. |
|
| In 8 BC, the Marcomanni and Quadi drove the Boii out of Bohemia. |
|
| At some point in this period the Marcomanni had come to be settled in the forested regions once inhabited by the Boii, in and around Bohemia, under his rule. |
|
| More Celts arrived during the BC 3rd century, and in BC 1st century the people of Boii tried to conquer some of the Dacian territory on the eastern side of the Teiss river. |
|
| It seems clear that the Romans had allowed them to take the former lands of the now missing Boii, in exchange for serving as a buffer against the Suebi. |
|
| While of the other tribes who had come to Italy along with the Boii, the Senones, Lingones and Cenomani are also attested in Gaul at the time of the Roman conquest. |
|
|
|
| It much rather indicates that the Boii neither destroyed nor depopulated Felsinum, but simply moved in and became part of the population by intermarriage. |
|
| After the Helvetian defeat at Bibracte, the influential Aedui tribe allowed the Boii survivors to settle on their territory, where they occupied the oppidum of Gorgobina. |
|
| The Aedui were granted their wish that the Boii who had accompanied the Helvetii would settle on their own territory as allies in the oppidum Gorgobina. |
|
| The numbers added up to a total of 263,000 Helvetii, 36,000 Tulingi, 14,000 Latobrigi, 23,000 Rauraci, and 32,000 Boii, all in all 368,000 heads, 92,000 of whom were warriors. |
|
| The Insubres, whose tribal territory immediately abutted the Alps, and the Boii, farther down the Po, were particularly pleased with Hannibal's proposed invasion. |
|
| In the classical era, from the 3rd century BC Celtic migrations, the Boii and later in the 1st century, Germanic tribes of Marcomanni and Quadi settled there. |
