Raka-maomao or Rakamaomao, in Māori mythology, is a god of wind.
He is the god of ordinary winds, in contrast to Tāwhirimātea, who is the god of tempests.
[1] To the Waitaha tribe of the South Island, Rakamaomao was the group of winds that blew from the south and north.
[2] Raka-maomao is equivalent to Ra‘a (Society Islands), Raka (Cook Islands), La'a Maomao (Hawaii)[3] and Fa'atiu (Samoa).
