Attalis (Ancient Greek: Ἀτταλίς) was a tribe (phyle) added by the ancient Athenians to the previous list of 11 Athenian tribes (consisting of trittyes and demes) in the spring of 200 B.C. (just a few months earlier the "Macedonian" tribes Antigonis and Demetrias were dissolved). The tribe was named after Attalos I of Pergamon.

The Monument of the Eponymous Heroes had two statues removed and one added, starting the so-called Period IV.

Modern researchers use the Roman numeral XIV to designate Attalis.

The 12 demes that formed Attalis were collected from all 11 old phylai ("rule-of-one"), with the 12th, Appolonieis, newly created and named after Apollonis of Cyzicus, wife of Attalos I.
