The Burramattagal, also spelled as Baramadagal, Boromedegal and Parramattagal are one clan of the Darug-Eora people of Indigenous Australians. Their country before colonisation by the British was the area now known as Parramatta in the Sydney region. Their naming is derived from the Darug words for eel (burra), place (matta) and people (gal), ie., people of the place of eels.
