Rangihaeata (Te Rangihaeata) New Zealand Māori chief who killed Captain Wakefield at the Wairau massacre, June 1848 [1843]

Rangihaeata (Te Rangihaeata) New Zealand Māori chief

Nā Charles Decimus Barraud tēnei pikitia i waituhi.

Kei te Whare Pukapuka a Alexander Turnbull Library.

Ko Te Rangihaeata tēnei. Ko Mōkau tētehi o ngā ingoa mōna. Ko te tikanga o tēnei o tana ingoa he whakamaharatanga ki tana tamaiti i toromi i te awa o Mōkau, i te hekenga mai o Ngāti Toa. He toa rongonui hoki ia nō Ngāti Toa. He irāmutu ia nā Te Rauparaha. Kei tōna ringa ko Te Heketua, he patu pounamu rongonui tēnei o ngā iwi Māori. Nā tēnei mere pounamu ngā Pākehā i Wairau i patu. Kore rawa a Te Rangihaeata i mau kākāhu Pākehā. He kahu Māori anake ōna. E kīia ana, neke atu i te ono putu te roa o Mōkau, ā, he tinana tino pakari tōna. I mate ia i te tau 1855.

Kei Ngā Tāngata Taumata Rau te roanga atu o ngā kōrero mōna.
