Ruapekapeka pā

I te tekau tau atu i 1840 tatū rawa ki te tekau tau atu i 1870 ka tū ngā pakanga i waenganui i te Māori me te Pākehā. Ka ara ngā iwi Māori kia pakanga ki te manene i tō rātou wehi kei riro ō rātou whenua me tō rātou tuakiri. Ko te tuatahi o ngā kakari nui i tū ki te raki, i te turaki a Hōne Heke te pou haki i tū ki Kororāreka, hei ātetetanga ki ngā kino o te noho Pākehā. I tū te pakanga whakamutunga o ērā riri ki Ruapekapeka. He whakaahua tēnei i tangohia mai i te waka rererangi, e taea ai te kite i ngā maioro o tēnei pā.
