Cothocidae or Kothokidai (Ancient Greek: Κοθωκίδαι) was a deme of ancient Attica, originally of the phyle of Oeneis, but between 307/306 BCE and 201/200 BCE of the phyle of Demetrias, sending two delegates to the Athenian Boule.Its site is tentatively located near Ag. Ioannes, north of modern Aspropyrgos.

Aspropyrgos (Greek: Ασπρόπυργος) is located in the Athens metropolitan area, is a town and a municipality in the West Attica regional unit, in Attica, Greece. The municipality had a population of 30,251 at the 2011 census. It has an area of 101.983 km2.

Thria (Ancient Greek: Θρία) was an important deme of ancient Athens, from which the Eleusinian plain, or, at all events, the central or eastern part of it, was called the Thriasian Plain (Θριάσιον πεδίον). When Attica was invaded from the west, the Thriasian Plain was the first to suffer from the ravages of the enemy. A portion of the Eleusinian plain was also called the Rharian Plain (Ράριον), in ancient times, but its site is unknown.The territory of Thria appears to have been extended as far as the salt-springs Rheiti, since the temple of Aphrodite Phila is said to have been in Thria. The site of Thria is located southeast of modern Aspropyrgos.

Oea or Oia (Ancient Greek: Ὀία) or Oee or Oie (Οἴη) or Oe (Ὄη or Ὀή) was a deme of ancient Athens. The location of Oea has been a matter of debate, with some situating it above the Pythium, to the west of Mount Aegaleos, to the north of the pass of Poecilum, and recent work putting the site northeast of Aspropyrgos.In the Boule of 500, Oea held six seats, and the deme seems to have maintained this rough scale into the Roman period.

Epacria or Epakria (Ancient Greek: Ἐπακρία) was one of the twelve districts of ancient Attica, and subsequently, as appears from an inscription, a deme near Plotheia and Halae Araphenides. As the name of a district, it was probably synonymous with Diacria. An ancient grammarian describes the district of Epacria as bordering upon that of the Tetrapolis of Marathon. It is located in northeastern Attica.

Fyli (Greek: Φυλή, pronounced [fiˈli]), formerly known as Chasia (Χασιά), is a town and a municipality in the northwestern part of Attica, Greece. It lies in the northeastern corner of the West Attica regional unit, and is a suburb of Athens. The seat of the municipality is the town Ano Liosia. Within bounds of the town is the ancient Athenian fortress of Phyle.

Phyle (Ancient Greek: Φυλή) was a strong fortress and deme of ancient Attica, on a steep rock, commanding the narrow pass across Mount Parnes, through which runs the direct road from Thebes to Attica, past Acharnae. On the northern side of the pass was the territory of Tanagra. Phyle is situated at the distance of more than 120 stadia from Attica, not 100 stadia, as Diodorus states, and was one of the strongest Attican fortresses on the Boeotian frontier. The precipitous rock upon which it stands can only be approached by a ridge on the eastern side. It is memorable in history as the place seized by Thrasybulus and the Athenian exiles in Battle of Phyle in 404 BCE, and from which they commenced their operations against the Thirty Tyrants. The height of Phyle commanded views of the whole Attican plain, of the city itself, of Mount Hymettus, and the Saronic Gulf. In Phyle there was a building called the Daphnephoreion, containing a picture, which represented the Thargelia. The site of Phyle is located within the bounds of modern Fyli.

Cettus or Kettos (Ancient Greek: Κηττός) was a deme, or suburb, of ancient Attica of the phyle of Leontis, sending three or four delegates to the Boule.Its site is tentatively located near modern Daphni.
