Ngāti Maru (Hauraki)
Ngāti Maru is a Māori ''iwi'' (tribe) of the Hauraki region of New Zealand. The stronghold of Ngāti Maru has been the Thames area. Ngāti Maru are descendants of Te Ngako, also known as Te Ngakohua, the son of Marutūāhu, after whom the tribe is named. It is one of five tribes of the Marutūāhu confederation, the others being Ngāti Paoa, Ngāti Rongoū, Ngāti Tamaterā and Ngāti Whanaunga. The Marutūāhu tribes are descended from Marutūāhu, a son of Hotunui, who is said to have arrived in New Zealand on the ''Tainui canoe''.

The main hapu of Ngāti Maru (which also comprise smaller sections) are Ngāti Hinemōkai (includes Ngāti Rongonui), Ngāti Kōpua (includes Ngāti Tamatāpui and Ngāriki) and Ngāti Kui (includes Ngāti Te Ika and Ngāti Tamakehu). Te Upoko o te Whenua Marae is the iwi's marae at Tarata. Ngarongo is the name of the whare puni (meeting house) and the whare kai (dining hall) is named Maruwharanui. Ancestry Maruwharanui had three siblings – a younger brother, Marukōpiri, who settled at Manganui-o-te-Ao, near Raetihi, and two sisters, Mihi-Rawhiti and Hinepango. It is surmised that Maruwharanui was contemporary with the arrival of the Hawaiki people in the 1300s. This is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
