Nō te tau 1847 anō tēnei whakaahua o te pā o Pōtatau Te Wherowhero, pātata ki  Ngāruawāhia, ka tekau pea ngā tau i mua i tana whakawahinga hei Kīngi Māori. Kei muri ko te maunga tapu o Taupiri, te urupā o ngā Kīngi Māori. Kei Ngāruawāhia te pokapū o Te Kīngitanga tae noa mai ki ngā tau 2000 o nāianei.
