I’m a rambler.
I’m a gambler.
I’m a long way from home.
And if ya’ don’t like me
Then leave me alone!

Bohemia, believed to be named 'blood red land' in some language or the other, pretty obviously has a Celtic name in that of the original dominant tribe in the time Julius Caesar conquered the area ~ to wit: BOII.

Once they were removed to the West which is North of Provincia, the territory was renamed by latin speaking people who moved in.

Celts, as every other European group, came out of Asia and their traces are found on their path all the way back to Asia. Galatia in Asia minor was celtic, “Galatia” being from the same linguistic stock as “gaul” and “Celt.” The Tarim Basin mummies from NW China of 2 1/2 to 4 millennia ago are very Celtic/Nordic appearing people, even to their textiles.

On the other hand, maybe the Etruscans got the vines from the Celts . . .
