Atu i Te Whanga o Kahumatamomoe (Ōkahu Bay) ki Rangitoto.

He whakaahua tēnei atu i Tāmaki ki Rangitoto. Ko Ōkahu tēnei, i tapaina mō Kahumatamomoe (Kahu), he tipuna nō Te Arawa. Ka noho a Kahu ki reira me Kaipara i te uru o Tāmaki. Mā roto i a Kahu te hononga o Te Wai-o-Hua rāua ko Ngāti Whātua ki a Te Arawa. I puta te ingoa o Rangitoto i te kōrero ‘Te Rangi-i-totongia-te-ihu-o-Tamatekapua’ – te patunga o Te Arawa e Tainui i Rangitoto i te takiwā o te tau 1350.
