Te Waiohua

[5] Around the year 1675, Ngāti Maru of the Marutūāhu collective sacked the Waiohua pā located at Maungakiekie / One Tree Hill, Maungawhau and Maungarei / Mount Wellington.

[6] Around 1680, Ngāti Whātua warrior chief Kāwharu led war parties to attack and sack two Waiohua pā located at Matukutūreia (McLaughlins Mountain) and Matukutūruru (Wiri Mountain), in the western part of Wiri, South Auckland.

[9] By this period, Ngāi Tāhuhu and Te Kawerau ā Maki were considered allies to Waiohua, or hapū who were a part of the union.

[2] In the 1750s, many remaining members of Waiohua settled among Waikato Tainui to the south, in locations such as Drury, Pōkeno and Papakura, while others intermarried with Ngāti Whātua.

[13] While leaving for the Waikato, Te Ākitai Waiohua rangatira Ihaka Takaanini was arrested alongside his family by his former neighbour Marmaduke Nixon, and accused of being a rebel.

[14] After the invasion, much of the Waiohua tribes' land was confiscated, subdivided and sold to British immigrants.
