Ko Pukemanu tētahi o ngā whakaari tuatahi i puta i te Kaporeihana Pāho o Aotearoa. I pā te raupapa hōtaka ki tētahi taone mira rākau i Te Ika-a-Māui. Ka aronui te hōtaka ki te iwiruatanga, ā, he Māori, he Pākehā ngā kaiwhakaari matua e whakakōrero ana i ngā take whai pānga ki te hapori iwirua. He paku hoki te reo Māori i te hōtaka. I roto i tēnei wāhanga o te hōtaka, ka kōrerotia te mahere a tētahi kamupene kia whakapahū i te wāhi tapu kia wātea ai mō tētahi rori, i roto i te pāparakāuta. Ko Charlie Rata (ko Ernie Leonard tonu) te kaikōrero tuatahi. Kāti i hua ake tēnei wāhanga o Pukemanu, (e kīia ana ko Charlie’s Rock) i ngā whakawhiti kōrero a Leonard me Hamish Keith (te kaituhi o te hōtaka) e pā ana ki ngā taukumekume i waenga i ngā ao e rua. He ihumanea a Leonard, inā rā he kaiwhakaari, he kaipānui pārongo, he kaiwhakangahau, he kaiwhakataki, he ringa tohu, he kaihautū, he kaihautū matua hoki ia. I te pokapū o te tekau tau 1980 ka tū ia hei ūpoko mō te wāhanga Māori o Te Reo Tātaki.
