Ko tā tēnei mahere he whakaatu i te takotoranga o ngā pā puta noa i Aotearoa. Ko te nuinga o ngā pā kei ngā takutai moana, ka tīmata mai i Whanganui me Te Matau-a-Māui. Waihoki konei ngā wāhi pai mō te whakatipu i te kūmara me te taro. Mēnā he tini ngā pā o tētahi takiwā, he tohu tērā i kaha pakangatia taua wāhi. I ngā raumati ka whakarērea ngā mahi a te rēhia, ā, ka tuwhera ngā tāwaha o te riri.
