En-hegal, also Enhengal (Sumerian: 𒂗𒃶𒅅, en-ḫe₂-ŋal₂), was possibly an ancient ruler of the Sumerian city-state of Lagash. Only one inscription mentioning him is known, the "Tablet of En-hegal", describing a business transaction. If indeed a king of Lagash, it is estimated he would have ruled circa 2570 BCE.
The tablet with his name describes a business transaction, in which a possible King En-hegal buys land. He seems to have purchased about 1,000 hectares of land. A tentative translation of the tablet was published by George A. Barton.
