Ko Raukaraka te ingoa o tēnei mere pounamu. Ko te rangatira o Tauranga Moana ko Kōraurau tōna kaiamo, nāna i tuku ki a Gilbert Mair (he kaihoko i Pēwhairangi) i te tau 1828. Nō muri i te tau 1864 (kua mate kē te tokorua) ka hahua ake e ngā hōia Pākehā, ā, ka whakahokia ki te tama a Kōraurau. Ka mutu hei whakaū i tā tōna matua i whakarite ai, ka kohaina e ia te mere ki te tama a Mair, arā, ki a Tawa.
