: When, after the action had thus occurred, his own men returned to each general, Scipio could adopt no fixed plan of proceeding, except that he should form his measures from the plans and undertakings of the enemy: and Hannibal, uncertain whether he should pursue the march he had commenced into Italy, or fight with the Roman army which had first presented itself, the arrival of ambassadors from the Boii, and of a petty prince called Magalus, diverted from an immediate engagement ; who, declaring that they would be the guides of his journey and the companions of his dangers, gave it as their opinion, that Italy ought to be attacked with the entire force of the war, his strength having been nowhere previously impaired.

According to Strabo, writing two centuries after the events, rather than being destroyed by the Romans like their Celtic neighbours, " the Boii were merely driven out of the regions they occupied ; and after migrating to the regions round about the Ister, lived with the Taurisci, and carried on war against the Daci until they perished, tribe and all — and thus they left their country, which was a part of Illyria, to their neighbours as a pasture-ground for sheep.

The known Cimbri chiefs have names that look Celtic, including Boiorix ( which may mean " King of the Boii " or, more literally, " King of Strikers "), Gaesorix ( which means " Spear King "), and Lugius ( which may be named after the Celtic god Lugus ), although this may not mean that they are Celtic as the elements could work in Germanic ( compare the name of the Vandalic king Gaiseric, which is likely identical to Gaesorix ).

Caesar related a tradition associating the Celtic tribe of the Volcae to the vast Hercynian forest, though they were more probably to be located in the eastern range of the Mittelgebirge ; yet, Volcae of his time were settled in Moravia, east of the Boii.

The Czech lands had been settled by the Celts ( Boii ), then later by various Germanic tribes ( Marcomanni, Quadi, Lombards and others ) until the beginning of 7th century and then by Slavic people.

The Boii people spread across Europe between 400 BC and 8 BC.

The " warrior " derivation was adopted by the linguist, Julius Pokorny, who presented it as being from Indo-European * bhei ( ə )-, * bhī -, " hit ;" however, not finding any Celtic names close to it ( except for the Boii ), he adduces examples somewhat more widely from originals further back in time: phohiio-s -, a Venetic personal name ; Boioi, an Illyrian tribe ; Boiōtoi, a Greek tribal name (" the Boeotians ") and a few others.

In the Middle Ages the Bavarians were considered the descendants of the Celtic Boii tribe.

Over the last half of the 20th century, historical and archaeological research has increasingly supported the theory that the remnants of the Celtic Boii were absorbed into the Roman Empire and later intermingled with other Germanic peoples who chose to stay ( or were stationed by the Romans ) in the area.

Map showing the approximate location of the Boii in Bohemia and in Italy.

The Boii ( Latin plural, singular Boius ; Greek ) were one of the most prominent ancient Celtic tribes of the later Iron Age, attested at various times in Cisalpine Gaul ( northern Italy ), Pannonia ( Hungary and its western neighbours ), in and around Bohemia, and Transalpine Gaul.

" In a reference to the first known historical Boii, Polybius relates that their wealth consisted of cattle and gold, that they depended on agriculture and war, and that a man's status depended on the number of associates and assistants he had.

Such a connection is possible if the original form of Boii belonged to a tribe of Proto-Indo-European speakers long before the time of the historic Boii.

Contemporary derived words include Boiorix (" king of the Boii ", one of the chieftains of the Cimbri ) and Boiodurum (" gate / fort of the Boii ", modern Passau ) in Germany.

According to the ancient authors, the Boii arrived in northern Italy by crossing the Alps.

While of the other the 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, there is no such clear evidence for the Boii in Gaul.

Strabo confirms that the Boii emigrated from their lands across the Alps and were one of the largest tribes of the Celts.

The archaeological evidence from Bologna and its vicinity contradicts the testimony of Polybius and Livy on some points, who say the Boii expelled the Etruscans and perhaps some were forced to leave.

It much rather indicates that the Boii neither destroyed nor depopulated Felsinum, but simply moved in and became part of the population by intermarriage.

In the second half of the 3rd century BC, the Boii allied with the other Cisalpine Gauls and the Etruscans against Rome.

Contrary to the interpretation of the classical writers, the Pannonian Boii attested in later sources are not simply the remnants of those who had fled from Italy, but rather another division of the tribe, which had settled there much earlier.

The burial rites of the Italian Boii show many similarities with contemporary Bohemia, such as inhumation, which was uncommon with the other Cisalpine Gauls, or the absence of the typically western Celtic torcs.
