Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ruapani was a rangatira (chief) of the M ori in T ranganui-a-Kiwa (the Poverty Bay-region on the East Coast of New Zealand) in the 15th and 16th century. He is said to have been the paramount chief of all the T ranganui-a-Kiwa tribes around 1525. His influence was large, it extended into the Ruakituri Valley and the Whakap naki district as far as the Huiarau Range beyond Lake Waikaremoana. Mackay gives a slightly different version of the history, resuming an address by Captain W. T. Pitt to the Rotary Club of Gisborne in 1934. When the T kitimu waka called in at Nukutaurua (Mahia Peninsula), her captain (Kiwa) left her and, with a small party, set off overland for Turanga (Poverty Bay). There he met P oa, Horouta''s captain. To celebrate the occasion they agreed that Kahutuanui (Kiwa''s son) should wed Hine-a-Kua (Paoa''s daughter).
