Te Uri O Hau

Te Uri O Hau
Hapu of the Ngati Whatua
The people of Te Uri O Hau were among the first Maori to populate Aotearoa, descending from the Waka - Mahuhu (one of the pre-hekenui waka of 1350 circa & one out of a few to bring a colonizing capacity [one other being the waka - Mamaari]) In those earlier days it was said that the people lived at Muriwhenua (in the North) that there were other people here on our arrival (the patupaiarehe) life continued harmoniously until the murder of a patupaiarehe occurred causing upheaval & fighting amongst the people of Muriwhenua who then all went their separate ways ... in those days the people were more nomadic & raw they moved about & it wasn't until after the eponymous ancestor of Te Uri O Hau settled at Pouto that Te Uri O Hau became known as such.
