By a semi-group of maps we mean a family \(H\) of self maps of a set \(X\) which is closed with respect to composition of maps (\(f\circ g=fg\)) and includes the identity map \(i_d(x)=x,\) for \(x\in X.\) A semi-group \(H\) of self maps of a set \(X\) is \textsl{nearly commutative} at \(g:X\to X\) if and only if (\(f\in H\)) implies that there exists \(h\in H\) such that \(fg=gh.\) In this paper the author obtains new fixed point theorems for functions with bounded orbits, which generalize many results existing in the literature.
