Kōrero: Take whenua
Nā Te Meihana Tākihi te whakapapa nei i whakatakoto hei tautoko i tana kerēme ki ētahi whenua ki Pakōwhai i Te Matau-a-Māui i te tau 1889. Hei ko tāna, ka whai take a ia ki taua whenua mā te take tupuna, te ahi kā, te take tuku me te raupatu. Ka heke tana whakapapa me āna tika ki te whenua i a Tāraia, heke iho ki a Hāwea. He mea nui te whakapapa i te Kōti Whenua Māori, hei tautoko i te take tupuna.
