The document discusses the history of Tainui, a Mori tribal confederation in New Zealand. It details how Tainui originated from an infant burial site where a great tree grew, which was used to build the Tainui waka canoe. During World War 2, the New Zealand government confiscated 25 hectares of Tainui land in Raglan to build an airfield without returning it after the war. This led to protests by Tainui and a long battle through the Waitangi Tribunal, culminating in the land finally being returned to Tainui 47 years later in 1988.

- 16. Tainui is a Tribal Waka Confederation of New Zealand comprising of Mori Iwi.Originally, Tainui was the name of an infant who did not survive childbirth. At the burial site of this child, at a place in Hawaiiki known then as Maungaroa, a great tree grew; this was the tree that was used to build the ocean canoe (waka) Tainui.The Tainui Waka (canoe) confederation comprises four principal related Mori Iwi of the central north island of New Zealand. The four Iwi being, Hauraki, NgtiManiapoto, Raukawa and Waikato. The Tainui Waka was one of the migratory sailing canoes that voyaged across the Pacific Ocean from Hawaiki to Aotearoa (New Zealand) approximately 800 years ago.The Tainui Waka was led by the chief Hoturoa. On its voyage the Tainui Waka stopped at many pacific islands and locations around the upper North Island of New Zealand; its first landfall was Whangaparaoa in the Bay of Plenty then on to Torere, Whitianga, and Waitemata. From WaitemataHarbour on the eastern coast the canoe was man-handled across the Tamaki isthmus to the western coast's ManukauHarbour. From Manukau Tainui sailed north to Kaipara then southwards to the west coast harbours of Whaingaroa (Raglan) Aotea and Kawhia then onward to south of the estuary of the Mokau and Mohakatini rivers before returning north to its final resting place at Maketu, Kwhiaharbour (Te Tumu O Tainui 1986).
