The essay analyzes the main sources on the office of the boiotarch during the Roman empire (I-III cent. AD). A first section concerns the relationship between the Boiotian koinon and the Achaian province. Then, after a survey of the literary sources on the Boiotian koinon (Plutarch and Pausanias), the author studies the known boiotarchs known for this period. A final perspective on the regional life will help forster the main thesis here suggested: there was only one boiotarch, in Boiotia, under the Roman empire. His duties were limited and the existence of a regional assembly did not inhibit the lively political life of the single communities.
