Māori iwi (tribe) in Aotearoa New Zealand
Māori tribal government
Waikato Tainui , Waikato or Tainui is a group of Māori iwi Waikato Region , in the western central region of New Zealand 's North Island .[1] Tainui confederation of Polynesian settlers who arrived to New Zealand on the Tainui waka Waikato River , which plays a large part in its history and culture.[2] [3]
Pōtatau Te Wherowhero , the first Māori king , was a member of the Ngāti Mahuta hapu (sub-tribe) of Waikato iwi, and his descendants have succeeded him. The king movement is based at Tūrangawaewae marae Ngāruawāhia .[3]
The Waikato-Tainui iwi comprises 33 hapū (sub-tribes) and 68 marae (family groupings), with around an estimated population of 84,030 tribal members who affiliate to Waikato-Tainui.[4] Hamilton City is now the tribe's largest population centre, but Ngāruawāhia remains the tribe's historical centre and modern capital.
This is how the iwi describes its origins and tribal area:
Ko Waikato te awa
Waikato is the river[1]
Government [ edit ]
Waikato-Tainui's governing parliamentary body is Te Kauhanganui , a governing body of 204 tribal members – 3 members from each of the 68 marae. The marae are spread over a large area from Te Kūiti and Cambridge in the south to Auckland in the north.
The executive board is Te Arataura , which has 10 representatives elected from Te Kauhanganui and an 11th member appointed by the Māori king. The Waikato-Tainui tribal administration (or iwi authority) is the Waikato Raupatu Trustee Company Ltd, which replaced the Tainui Māori Trust Board, and is situated at Hopuhopu , Ngāruawāhia.
The Waikato iwi has been using the name Tainui to describe itself for some time, through the establishment of the Tainui Māori Trust Board by the Waikato-Maniapoto Maori Claims Settlement Act 1946 , with many people now referring to the Waikato iwi as "Tainui" or "Waikato-Tainui".[2] [3]
There have traditionally been strong links between Tainui and the University of Waikato , which has strengths in Māori language and modern local history. The university also holds documents and objects related to the tribe.[3]
