Hinematioro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hinematioro (c.17501823) was the acknowledged leader of Te Aitanga-a-Hauiti, a New Zealand Māori iwi (tribe). She identified with the Ngāti Porou iwi.[1] In Māori culture she is an ariki tapairu, or first-born in a notable family, and her influence and mana were wider than her tribal leadership.[2]

Her mother was Ngunguru-te-rangi, and her father was Tane-toko-rangi.[1]
