Uenukukōpako

He joined his cousin Rangiteaorere in the conquest of Mokoia Island in Lake Rotorua and settled his people there.

[3] At this point, Rangiteaorere, an illegitimate son of Rangiwhakaekeau, arrived from Te Teko and agreed to participate in a third attack on Mokoia, so long as he was given leadership of the expedition.

[4][5] Rangiteaorere swam out in the night and planted a stump in the lakebed near the shore of Mokoia and attached a rope to it.

The attackers also killed the chiefs Mamaku, Matariki, Ouepo, Te Arai, Maungaroa, and Parakiri and most of the other inhabitants of the island.

During these travels, he established a pā (fortified village) at Waiteti, another at Weriweri, which he gave to his son Whakaue-kaipapa, and a third one at Atiamuri, which he called Te Ngārahu.

[9] During his lifetime, all the huahua (cooked birds, preserved in their own fat) from Maroanui, Patetere, Whakamaru, and Horohoro were sent to Uenukukōpako.
