I don't know if the creator of this map had any sources or insights when he/she placed the "?" origin of the Boii just to the east of Luxembourg in Western Germany.
This site mentions
The Boii "belong to Celtic 'La Tene' culture and most of the ancient authors refer to them as “Gauls”. (Polybius – Histories, Appian – Gallic history, Pliny the Elder – The Natural History…)
So a Gaulish La Tene location e.g. Moselle La Tene makes sense

But this "?" location within the yellow circle on map overlay below, is right in the middle Treveri territory and the FGC47869 polygon
