  Eora - Definition, explanation
The Eora (sometimes spelt Iora or Iyora) people were the aboriginal occupants of the Sydney region in 1788 when the first European colonists arrived.
The Gadegal clan lived to the south and west of the Balmain peninsula, and the Wanegal to the north and west.
The Eora lived largely from the produce of the sea, and were expert in close-to-shore navigation, fishing, cooking and eating in the bays and harbours in their bark canoes.
