1860
(Person)

Waikato leader, warrior, Maori King.

Mentioned in

A monupent in memory of Te Whero Whero's daughter at Raroera Pa, Waikato. European influences are noticeable in this elaborate monument which was drawn by Angas during his journey through the North Island One of Angas's renderings of life in a Maori pa in the forties. He described it as 'Tu Kaitote, the Pa of Te Whero Whero, on the Waikato, Taupiri Mountainn in the distance.' White blankets or cotton coverings appear to be the favourite dress of the Maori shown here Po-tatau-wherowhero Te Werowero, Or Potatau The Maori King's Flag
