{{for|the sacred shields kept in ancient Rome|Ancile}}Ancyle or Ankyle ({{lang-grc|Ἀγκυλή}}) was the name of two demoi of ancient Attica: Upper Ancyle and Lower Ancyle. They were located east of Athens and bordering Agryle to the south.^[1] Upper Ancyle passed from the phyle Aigeis to Antigonis in 307/306 BCE; Lower Ancyle remained in the Aigeis phyle.^[2]^[3]

In the 3rd century, in Roman times, the demoi were home to rich landed properties. Their name derives from the Greek name for "javelin" (which was thrown with a rope). The same root also appears in an epithet attributed to Cronus and to Prometheus, "of sharp wits".
