Wardal
# Wardal

The Wardal were an Aboriginal Australian people of the Mid West and Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia.

## Country

Norman Tindale calculated by inference that the Wardal's lands covered around 15,000 square miles (39,000 $km^2),$ from Lake Carnegie running west and northwest to Well 11 (Goodwin Soak) on the Canning Stock Route. Their southern boundaries lay round Lake Nabberu while their westernmost extension appears to have gone as far as the Old Bald Hill Station near Beyond Bluff.

## Name

Wardal appears to mean 'west' and by extension, 'westerners'.
