- Braquil·les (en llatí Brachylles o Brachyllas, en grec antic Βραχύλλης, Βραχύλλας), fou un grec de Beòcia fill de Neon, que es va guanyar el favor del rei de Macedònia Antígon III Dosó i quan aquest va conquerir Esparta (222 aC) li va donar el govern de la ciutat, segons diu Polibi. Mort Antígon III el 220 aC va continuar servint a Filip V de Macedònia, a qui va acompanyar a la conferència amb Tit Quinti Flaminí (Flamininus) a Nicea de Lòcrida l'any 198 aC, segons Polibi i Titus Livi. A la Batalla de Cinoscèfales l'any 197 aC, dirigia les tropes beòcies del rei macedoni i va caure presoner, però Flaminí el va enviar a casa sa i estalvi juntament amb la resta de compatriotes presoners, ja que volia guanyar el favor dels beocis. A la seva tornada va ser elegit beotarca de la Lliga Beòcia, mercès a la influència del partit macedoni a Tebes. Els caps del partit romà, Zeuxip i Pisístrat entre d'altres, el van assassinar el 196 aC quan una nit tornava d'un banquet, probablement amb el consentiment romà, segons Polibi, cosa que omet Titus Livi.

- Brachyllas (Ancient Greek: Βραχύλλας) or Brachylles (Ancient Greek: Βραχύλλης), son of Neon, was a Boeotian ally of the Macedonian king Antigonus Doson. Accordingly, when the latter took Sparta in 222 BC, he entrusted to Brachyllas the government of the city. After the death of Antigonus in 220 BC, Brachyllas continued to attach himself to the interests of Macedonia under Philip V, whom he attended in his conference with the Roman consul Flamininus at Nicaea (Locris) in 198 BC. At the battle of Cynoscephalae (197 BC) he commanded the Boeotian troops in Philip's army; but, together with the rest of his countrymen who had on that occasion fallen into Roman hands, he was sent home in safety by Flamininus, who wished thus to conciliate Boeotia. On his return he was elected Boeotarch through the influence of the Macedonian party at Thebes; in consequence of which Zeuxippus, Peisistratus, and the other leaders of the Roman party, caused him to be assassinated as he was returning home one night from an entertainment in 196 BC. Polybius records, and Livy omits to state, that Flamininus himself was privy to the crime. (en)
