He maha ngā whakatipuranga o te whānau Tirikātene o Ngāi Tahu kua mau ki tēnei kahu kiwi. I te tau 1932 ka takoha a Tahupōtiki Wiremu Rātana i tēnei korowai ki a Eruera Tirikātene hei tohu koia te Rātana tuatahi kia uru ki te Paremata. Nō muri ka tuku a Eruera i te korowai nei ki tana tamāhine ki a Tini Whetū Mārama Tirikātene-Sullivan, he mema paremata nō Reipa. Nāwai ka tukua e ia te korowai ki tōna teina ki a Kukupa (taha mauī), ā, kua mauria e ia i ngā hui nunui.
