NGAI TAMANUHIRI MAPS

This map was created between 1996-2010... the presented to Rakaipaaka at Muriwai Marae to illustrate our claim to the whenua. It was put together by Noel and Warren Pohatu. 

The maps below are an indication of how each land block is divided. The pa and villages that make up this land have long gone... but the names remain attached to the land. If we look very carefully we will see... that the names in our whakapapa are also attached to the land. Te Whare o Tamanuhiri, Te Ana o Tamaraukura, Te Kohe o Paea, Rangiwaho, Te Taumata o Puraho, Te Toka o Tutekawa, Te Pahangahanga o Tapunga... the land is talking to us... the land is telling it's story of our history
