Erueti Te Whiti Te Whiti-o-Rongomai III (?–1907), born during the turmoil of the 'musket wars', was of the Taranaki tribe Te Āti Awa.
It is said he was identified as a teacher and prophet early in life, and much care was taken to ensure his safety. His stature in the Māori traditional world was enhanced by his deep knowledge of Christian doctrine.
Te Whiti was said to have taken part in the Taranaki wars of the 1860s, but by the mid-1860s he had decided to pursue peaceful resistance to European incursion and the loss of land.
One tradition has it that Te Whiti and his people first moved to the inland village later known as Parihaka in the 1840s, to escape the social and economic pressures of coastal life. Other sources say he began living there in the 1860s after the Taranaki wars and subsequent land confiscations. In any event Parihaka became a centre of peaceful resistance and a rallying point for many Māori. Parihaka was led by Te Whiti and his relative and fellow prophet Tohu Kākahi. The main focus of Māori discontent was land confiscation and the government's failure to set aside promised reserves.
In 1879 the government began to survey 16,000 acres of the confiscated Waimate Plain without setting aside Māori reserves. In response, Māori, led by Te Whiti and Tohu, began ploughing land occupied by settlers. Arrests followed, but the pace of protest continued to grow. Parihaka became a symbol for many Māori, and its people received food and other supplies from many tribes throughout the country – including those as far away as the Chatham Islands.
On 5 November 5 1881 a force of almost 1,600 Armed Constabulary and volunteers, led by Native Minister John Bryce, invaded Parihaka. The Māori inhabitants, numbering about 2,000, put up no resistance. Instead they greeted Bryce and his men with bread and song. They were dispersed and Te Whiti and Tohu were arrested. The soldiers then systematically wrecked the settlement, and Māori tradition speaks of brutality and rape.
Te Whiti was charged with 'wickedly, maliciously, and seditiously contriving and intending to disturb the peace'. Held without trial, he was not released until 1883, when he returned to the ruined Parihaka settlement. Te Whiti and Tohu continued to lead peaceful Māori protest, and Te Whiti was imprisoned again for six months in 1886. In 1892 the West Coast Settlement Reserves Act brought in a system of renewable leases to settlers on over 200,000 acres of Māori land. Māori persisted with the ploughing campaigns in protest at the Act. In 1897, 92 Māori were arrested for ploughing in protest at delays in resolving the grievances over the Native Trustee's management of these leases.
Te Whiti and Tohu died in 1907 within a few months of each other. The white albatross feather, which Te Whiti’s followers adopted as a symbol protecting the mana of the Parihaka settlement, remains an enduring emblem among Te Āti Awa.
Adapted from the DNZB biography by Danny Keenan
Te Whiti-o-Rongomai
Ka whānau mai a Te Whiti (?-1907) i te wā o ngā pakanga mau pū i waenganui i ngā iwi. Ko tōna iwi ko Te Āti Awa o Taranaki. E ai ki ngā kōrero, e tamariki tonu ana a Te Whiti ka puta i a ia ngā tohu o te matakite, o te poropiti. I āta manaakitia ia e tōna iwi. I tua atu, he tangata matatau ia ki te whakapono Karaitiana; kātahi ka nui atu ngā rongo kōrero mōna i te ao Māori. E ai ki te kōrero, i roto a Te Whiti i ngā riri ki Taranaki i te tekau tau atu i 1860. Heoti, tae rawa ki te pokapū o taua tekau tau, kua huri kē ia ki te mautohe mārie ki te tomo mai o te Pākehā me te rironga o ngā whenua.
Tērā tētahi kōrero e mea ana i whakatūria te kāinga o Parihaka e Te Whiti mā i te tekau tau atu i 1840, hei wāhi haumaru i ngā whakararu ki takutai. Tērā tētahi atu kōrero e mea ana, nō muri rawa i ngā riri me te raupatunga whenua o te tekau tau atu i 1860, ka tū tōna kāinga i Parihaka. Ahakoa he aha, ka tipu a Parihaka hei pokapū mō ngā mautohe mārie a te iwi Māori. Ko Te Whiti rāua ko tōna pāpā a Tohu Kakahi ngā kaiārahi. Rite a Tohu rāua ko Te Whiti, he matakite. Ko te take nui ki te iwi Māori ko ngā whenua i raupatutia me te kore tutuki i te kāwanatanga tana kī taurangi mō ngā whenua ka rāhuitia mō te Māori.
I te tau 1879 ka tīmata te kāwanatanga ki te rūri i te whenua raupatu e 16,000 eka te rahi i ngā mānia o Waimate. Kāore i rāhuitia he wāhanga o tēnei whenua mō te Māori. Hei utu mō tēnei, ka tīmata a Te Whiti rātou ko Tohu, ko te iwi ki te parau i ngā whenua kei te nōhia e te Pākehā. Ka mauherea ētahi. Hāunga tērā, ka nui haere ngā mautohe, ka tū a Parihaka hei tohu whakakaha i te tini o te iwi Māori. Ka tukua mai e tēnā iwi, e tēnā iwi he kai, tae rawa ki Wharekauri.
I te rā 5 o Nōema o te tau 1881 ka whakaekea a Parihaka e ngā Pirihimana Mau Pū me ngā tūao e 1600 te rahi; ko tō rātou kaiārahi ko te Minita mō ngā Take Māori, a Te Paraihe (John Bryce). Kāore i ātetetia tō rātou kuhu e te iwi o Parihaka e 2000 pea te tokomaha. Ka horahia ngā kai mā Te Paraihe me tōna ope, ka waiatatia rātou. Kia ahatia. Whakamararatia ana te iwi, mauheretia ana a Te Whiti rāua ko Tohu. Wāwāhia ana te kāinga o Parihaka. Kei te mau tonu ngā kōrero tuku iho mō ngā mahi whakarihariha a ngā hōia, tā rātou tūkino i ngā wāhine.
Ka ūhia ngā whakapae ki runga i a Te Whiti mō te "whakatutū i te puehu i runga i te kino, i te ngākau waniwani". Ka mauherea ia, hāunga te mea kāore anō kia tū he whakawākanga. Nō te tau 1883 ka tukua ia. I tana hokinga kua pākarukaru katoa a Parihaka. Ka ārahi tonu a Te Whiti rāua ko Tohu i ngā mautohe mārire, whai anō i te tau 1886 ka whiua anōtia a Te Whiti ki te whare herehere mō te ono marama. Nā te Ture Whakatau Papa Rāhui o te Tai Hauāuru o te tau 1892, ka tareka e ngā tāngata whai te whakahou i ā rātou rīhi i runga i ngā whenua Māori e 200,000 eka. Hei ātete i te ture nei, ka haere tonu ngā mautohe mārire a ngā Māori. I te tau 1897, e 92 ngā tāngata Māori i mauherea mō te parau whenua; i mautohe nā te takaroa o te whakatau i ō rātou nawe mō ngā whakahaere a te Kaitiaki Māori i ngā rīhi nei.
Nō te tau 1907 i mate ai a Te Whiti rāua ko Tohu. Ko te raukura toroa te tohu a ngā pononga o Te Whiti e whakaū ana i te mana o Parihaka, e mau tonu nei i roto o Te Āti Awa i ēnei rā.

Kei te rau atu nei he korero e pa ana ki te rauemi irirangi hou ma nga wharekura me nga kaikorero reo Maori, kia rongo atu i tetahi pakiwaitara o nga wa o mua.
E iwa nga wahanga, he ahua waru meneti te roa o ia wahanga.
Whakarongo:
- Wahanga 1: [Windows Media] [MP3]
- Wahanga 2: [Windows Media] [MP3]
- Wahanga 3: [Windows Media] [MP3]
- Wahanga 4: [Windows Media] [MP3]

Anei he korero whakamarama na Menu Maui, no Ngai Tuhoe
MAKOREA na Menu Maui, no Ngai Tuhoe
Na Katerina Te Heikoko Mataira te pukapuka i tuhi, nana ano hoki i tuhi te whakaari a-irirangi.
He mihi tenei ki a Katerina mo tenei whakaari a-irirangi, he korero parekura, mamae, waimarie, aroha, he aha atu i tua atu i tera.
He tuku mihi atu hoki ki a “Korero Mai” mo te putea i oti ai tenei kopae, me “Te Upoko o te Ika” mo te wahi hopu i nga reo, te kaituitui, te kaihonohono i nga reo korero, me te whakauru atu i nga oro ki muri i nga korero.
Mo te mahinga o tenei whakaari, miharo ana ahau ki te mahi tahi i te taha o nga kaikorero, he tuatahi tenei momo mahi whakaari mo etahi o ratou, mo etahi kua waia ke.
Ha . . he aha hoki tera. . kei te omaoma hokeka te iwi !
E hingahinga ana!
Ehara tera i te manuhiri . . he taua ke!
He ngawari hoki te mahi hai ringa tohu mo te kopae nei, ki te hopu i nga reo, ki te whakarongo ki nga katakata, ki nga hapa, ki te rongo hoki i te rere o te reo e taka noa mai ana i te arero. Mo etahi o nga kaikorero, koinei to ratou reo tuarua, engari miharo tonu ana ki a ratou mahi tino ataahua.
Nahau taua e ora ai! Na to takaroa i te heketua.
Tino tika tena! Na te ngau o taku puku taua i ora ai.
He maha nga po e mahi ana ki te tuitui, ki te honohono i nga reo, i muri o te haerenga o nga kaikorero. Ki ahau, koinei ke te tino mahi.
I ohorere te katoa i te hinganga o Nga Roimata ki te papa me te waiata tangi a Te Whe.
Ka rongohia te mamae mai i te mahi a te parekura a nga ope taua. Ka mohiotia e koe te mokemoke, te rongo o te aroha, mai i nga Makorea.
Kihai te harakoa me te aroha i huna.
Tiro mai, tiro atu me te kai o nga karu i te wahine purotu, i te tane purotu. Katahi ano nga puhi ra ka rongo ki te ahuareka o te kiri ki te kiri,
kia ngaro nga mahara i runga i te tai pari me te tai timu o te aroha.

I tēnei wiki i puta te karanga i ā Gareth Morgan ko te mahi ā te poti he kōhuru i ngā manu Māori.
Ināianei kei te tautokohia ana whakaaro e ngā kaipūtaiao.
Hei tā Tākuta Yolanda Van Heezik, he kaipūtaiao nō te whare wānanga ō Otakou he pai ngā kōrero ā Morgan me te mea nei ākuni pea ka pai hoki ngā hua.
Ko te whakamate i ngā poti tētahi huarahi ā, heoi anō ko te mea nui ko te whakahau i te hunga nā rātou ngā poti kia whakahaere tika i ō rātau kararehe.
Heoi anō atu i te whakanoho i ngā poti i rō whare mō te katoa mō te rā, ko ētahi atu tohutohu, kia rehitatia, kia pokaina hoki, ā me whakato he tohu hikohiko ki raro i ōnā kiri rānei e whakaatu i tāna ingoa, nō wai ia he aha rānei.

Poaka
Ko te Poaka he manu waimāori o Aotearoa. He manu kautū. He roroa, he whīroki, he māwhero ngā waewae. Ko ngā ngutu, ngā parirau me te porongāua he pango. He mā katoa te tinana. He rite ana kit e Kakī.
Ko te ingoa pūtaiao o te Poaka he Himantopus himantopus leucocephalus. Ko te ingoa o tēnei manu i te reo Pākehā o Aotearoa nei, he Pied Stilt; engari, ki ngā tāngata o tāwāhi, he Black-winged Stilt kē te ingoa.
Hoto ki waho[edit | edit source]

Mahope iho nae o ka haiolelo ana a Hinaikamalama, hoomaka hou ke kilu, ia Aiwohikupua laua me Makaweli ke kilu ia manawa.
Ia manawa, ku hou mai la ka mea ume a hooili hou i ka maile maluna o Hauailiki me Hinaikamalama, a ku ae la o Hauailiki, a ku mai la no hoi o Hinaikamalama. Ma keia ume hope, hai mai la o Hinaikamalama i kana olelo imua o Hauailiki, “E ke Alii e, ua hoohuiia kaua e ka mea ume ma ka mea mau o na aha lealea. Aka, alia wau e ae aku, aia ae mai o Aiwohikupua e hooko maua i na hoohiki a maua, a pau ko maua manawa, alaila, ma ka po lealea hou a ke Alii, e hookoia ai ka ume o keia po no kaua.” Alaila, he mea maikai loa ia i ko Hauailiki manao.
A no keia olelo a Hinaikamalama, lawe ae la o Aiwohikupua ia Hinaikamalama no ka hooko i ka laua hoohiki.
Ia po no, iloko o ko laua manawa hoomaha no ka hooluolu i ka hoohiki ana, hike mai la ma o Hinaikamalama ke anu maeele loa, no ka mea, ua kuu mai la o Poliahu i ke anu o kona kapahau maluna o kona enemi.
Ia manawa, hapai ae la o Hinaikamalama he wahi mele:
“He anu e he a—nu
He anu e wale no hoi keia,
Ke ko nei i ke ano o kuu manawa,
Ua hewa ka paha loko o ka noho hale,
Ke kau mai nei ka halia i kuu manawa,
No ka noho hale paha ka hewa—e.
E kuu hoa—e, he anu—e.”
MOKUNA XIX
A pau ke oli ana i Hinaikamalama, olelo aku la oia ia Aiwohikupua, “Auhea oe, e apo mai oe ia’u a paa i mehana iho wau, hele mai nei kuu anu a anu, aohe wahi anu ole.”
Alaila, hooko mai la o Aiwohikupua i ka ka wahine olelo, alaila, loaa mai la ka mahana e like me mamua.
A hoomakaukau iho la laua e hooluolu no ka hooko i ka laua hoohiki ma ka hoopalau ana, alaila, hiki hou mai la ke anu ia Hinaikamalama, o ka lua ia o kona loaa ana i ke anu.
Ia manawa, hapai hou ae la oia he wahi mele, penei:
“E ke hoa e, he a—nu,
Me he anu hau kuahiwi la keia,
Ke anu mai nei ma na kapuai,
Ke komi nei i kuu manawa,
Kuu manawa hiamoe—hoi,
Ke hoala mai nei ke anu ia’u,
I kuu po hiamoe—hoi.”
I keia manawa, olelo aku la o Hinaikamalama ia Aiwohikupua, “Aole anei oe i ike i ke kumu o keia anu o kaua? Ina ua ike oe i ke kumu o keia anu, alaila e hai mai; mai huna oe.”
I aku o Aiwohikupua, “No ko punalua keia anu, ua huhu paha ia kaua, nolaila, aahu ae la ia i ke kapa hau ona, nolaila na anu.”
Pane aku la o Hinaikamalama, “Ua pau kaua, no ka mea, ua pili ae la no na kino o kaua, a ua ko ae la no ka hoohiki a kaua no ka hoopalau ana.”
I mai o Aiwohikupua, “Ua oki kaua i keia manawa, e hookaawale kaua, apopo ma ke awakea, alaila, oia ka hooko ana o ka hoohiki a kaua.”
“Ae,” wahi a Hinaikamalama.
A kaawale aku la laua, alaila, loaa iho la ia Hinaikamalama ka moe oluolu ana ia koena po a hiki i ke ao ana.
