Agryle
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]
