It is unclear whether they were an Illyrian, Celtic, or Thracian tribe, or a mixed group. Some Roman authorities consider them a Thracian people, because of their admixture with an older Thraco-Illyrian population. As early as 175 BC they came into collision with the Romans by assisting Perseus, king of Macedonia; and after Macedonia became a Roman province they were for many years engaged in hostilities with them.

They even advanced as far as Delphi and plundered the temple; but Lucius Cornelius Scipio Asiaticus finally overcame them in 88 BC and drove them across the Danube. In Strabo's time they had been expelled from the valley of the Danube by the Dacians. The Scordisci later became subject to the Dacians.
