Agryle

Not to be confused with Argyle. "Agrae" redirects here. For the town in ancient Pisidia, see Agrae (Pisidia).

Agryle (Ancient Greek: Ἀγρυλή, Ἀραυλή, or Ἀγροιλή) was the name of two demoi of ancient Attica, a Lower Agryle (Agryle Hypenerthen) and an Upper Agryle (Agryle Kathyperthen). They lay immediately south of the stadium in the city of Athens.^[1]

It is probable that the district of Agrae located south of the Ilisos river, belonged to one of these demoi.^[2]
