Daramulum

In several of the Aboriginal cultures of south-east Australia such as Wiradyuri, Kamilaroi, Eora, Darkinjung, and Guringai, Daramulum (“one legged”) is a son of Baiame and his emu-wife Birrahgnooloo. He is often depicted in Sydney Rock Engravings in semi-profile, with one arm, an emu-back (i.e. pointed buttocks), and a club foot. He is often shown close to an emu, which may be his totem, or may be related to his emu ancestry. He has the ability to change his appearance from that of a huge giant to that of a small animal or bird.
