Per the previously mentioned Treveri and Boii:

Quote:ABSTRACT Te wearing of iron imitations of popular bronze fbulae was a common custom in La Tène culture. Tis is particularly well visible in the Late La Tène period. A good example of such brooches are the four wrought iron Kostrzewski type J ‘spoon bow’ fbulae, patterned afer the cast – most typically from bronze – Schüsselfbeln. Such fbulae were particularly widely used in the so-called ‘Boii coinage zone’, with their highest concentrations coming from two sites located in that area – from a hilltop settlement on the Oberleiserberg in Lower Austria and the oppidum on the Hradiště in Stradonice in Central Bohemia. Such brooches are also found in large quantities in lands to
the north and north-west of the ‘Boii’ zone, mostly in Przeworsk and Oksywie culture graves, and in areas occupied by the Celtic Treveri. Part of these finds are dated to later times than their counterparts from La Tène culture sites in Central Europe...

Kostrzewski type J fibulae are one of the most characteristic elements of dress in the Boii coinage zone (Fig. 5). The largest collection of such brooches – 70 specimens – was found at a small hilltop settlement on the Oberleiserberg in NE Lower Austria, where they constitute the largest – by quite a margin – typological group of fibulae yielded by that site...

A small concentration of finds of Kostrzewski type J fibulae comes from the Middle Rhine area (Fig. 5)...As to areas settled by the Celtic Treveri on the west bank of the Rhine finds from three locations in contemporary Rhineland-Palatinate may be mentioned – from a cemetery at Trier-Biewer (3 finds); from a cemetery at Wederath (6 finds) and from the Martberg oppidum in Pommerania (3 finds), plus from the large settlement complex in south-western Luxemburg – from the settlement and “Lamadelaine” cemetery of the Titelberg oppidum at Pétange...

In the context of these unclear connections an interesting observation has been made by Jiří Militký (MILITKÝ 2015, 117), who has suggested that Treveri coinage may have adopted certain elements of Boii coinage. Assuming that such a process occurred around the middle of the 1st century BC, and maybe even earlier, then it doubtlessly was the result of direct contacts between the two groups.

So there appears to have been a connection between the Treveri and Boii in the 1st Century BC and possibly earlier.
