Waka Hourua

 

Many waka hourua followed Kupe over the next few hundred years, landing at various parts of New Zealand.

 

Iwi (Maori tribes) can trace their beginnings and whakapapa (genealogy) back to certain waka hourua.

 

The seven waka that arrived to Aotearoa were called:

Tainui, Te Arawa, Mātaatua, Kurahaupō, Tokomaru, Aotea, Tākitimu.
