Rangitaane

Tena koe hakui,

E tika ana ou koorero.
The Kahungunu Rohe is not exclusively occupied by KAHUNGUNU IWI.
Both Tamaki-nui-a-Rua & Wairarapa are areas in which Rangitaane Iwi have longstanding patterns of settlement & Mana Whenua.

Rangitaane are descended from the ancestor of the same name who was born here in HERETAUNGA, and who was a descendant of WHATONGA - the first settler of the Heretaunga Plains.

For more information use the Rangitane o Tamaki-nui-a-Rua & Rangitane o Wairarapa weblinks that I have added to the site or check out the Rangitaane ki Manawatu site.

Rangitane tangata-rau, Rangitane nui a rangi
Tini whetu ki te rangi, Ko Rangitane ki te whenua !
