  Boii - LoveToKnow 1911
213) the Boii were driven back across the Alps and settled on the land of their kinsmen, the Taurisci, on the Danube, adjoining Vindelicia and Raetia.
About 60 B.C. some of the Boii migrated to Noricum and Pannonia, when 32,000 of them joined the expedition of the Helvetians into Gaul, and shared their defeat near Bibracte (58).
Some remnants of the Boii are mentioned as dwelling near Bordeaux; but Mommsen inclines to the opinion that the three groups (in Bordeaux, Bohemia and the Po districts) were not really scattered branches of one and the same stock, but that they are instances of a mere similarity of name.

 Boii - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boii (a Latin plural) is the Roman name of three ancient Celtic tribes, living in Transalpine Gaul (modern France), Cisalpine Gaul (northern Italy), and Bohemia, Moravia and western Slovakia.
Despite the derivation of the name, the ancient Boii should neither be confused with the present-day inhabitants of what it now the state of Bavaria in Germany, nor with those of Bohemia in the Czech Republic.
That the Boii survived until the time of Caesar (50 years after the Cimbrian War) indicates that, perhaps, the Roman propaganda of their crushing defeat against the barbarians may be overstated.

Fabius at the command of a combined four legions advanced on the Boii tribe as the first target in pacification of the Transalpine Gauls.
Hannibal, though cautioned by his war council to stay west of the Alps, realized that he could not let his sole ally in Italy fall to Roman aggression and boldly marched across the Alps and directly into a numerically superior Roman combined army.
Fabius has fallen along with nearly half of the army, the Boii are liberated, and Hannibal has a foothold in Italy.

Boii (a Latin plural) is the Roman name of an ancient Celtic tribe, living in Transalpine Gaul (modern France) and Cisalpine Gaul (northern Italy), and later in Pannonia (today Western Hungary), Bohemia, Moravia and western Slovakia.
Despite the derivation of the name, the ancient Boii should neither be confused with the present-day inhabitants of Bavaria in Germany, or those of Bohemia in the Czech Republic.

 The Celtic Tribes of Roman Gaul
The Boii were an alpine peoples who seem to have had an expansionist phase possibly around the fourth century BCE where they both migrated north-westwards from their homelands in the west of what is now Switzerland as well as traversing the alps to settle in the north-west of Italy.
Thus Caesar may have been correct in that the invasion was a confederation with the chieftain of the Boii acting as overlord.
Livy in his Ab Urbe Condita mentions that it was the Boii who offered to show Hannibal the passes across the Alps, which makes sense in terms of their territories lying on both sides of the Alps.

 Bias Will be Boiis
Although it is doubted by some that the Boii became the Bavarians (Latin "Baioari"), it seems difficult to deny that they were of the Baiocasse (House of the Baio).
It can't be a coincidence that Melia was the direct progenitor, and therefore a symbol, of Boeotia, which in the Greek is "Boiotia." This was a region north of Athens and having Kabieri-infested Thebes as its capital.
This supports the theory that Wroxester was founded by the Boii, and in turn may serve to reveal that the Veres were from the Boii.

The only point we can be sure of is that at some time the Cimbri during their migration, tried to invade Boii territory and were repulsed, because of the strong defense position the Boii had.
I find it very believeable that there was no major battles, because of the strong oppidas the Boii had during these times and so the Cimbrii wandered off to find better and easier lands to conquer and places to live.
