Hinemihi (Ngāti Tūwharetoa)

[1][2] One day, Hinemihi's sister Hine-aro came to Whakatāne along with a group of Ngāti Kurapoto, bringing huahua (cooked birds, preserved in their own fat).

This was Hinemihi's favourite food, but when she tried to eat some, her brother Tū-hereua grabbed her hand and said "If you like huahua so much, why don’t you go to Taupō and marry Tū-te-tawhā!”[1][2] Hine-aro and the Ngāti Kurapoto took Hinemihi and a third sister, Te Akipare, back to Ōpepe, where Hine-aro lived with her husband Pakira of Ngāti Poto.

The place where she did this was henceforth known as Te Ponanga-o-te-hei-o-Hinemihi ("The Binding of the Necklace of Hinemihi").

[1] Shortly after this, she and Tū-te-tawhā resettled from Lake Rotoaira, to the Karangahape cliffs at the south end of Lake Taupō, due to disagreements with Ngāti Whitikaupeka, and Tū-te-tawhā built a fortress on Motuwhara Island.

[3][4] Tū-te-tawhā subsequently defeated the Ngāti Whitikaupeka at the Battle of Uwhiuwhi-hiawai, with the help of Hinemihi's brother Tū-hereua.
