This channel is currently in the process of doing videos on the Musket Wars in New Zealand. I will always endeavour to visit the sites where various engagements occured. I take my drone along as well so as to help the viewer get an awareness of the space.
The series on the Musket Wars may be interrupted at anytime if something of historical interest takes my fancy.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy these videos and become a subscriber.

I've just listened to these 3 episodes with great interest, ending in pure horror, distress and revulsion 🫣😠😬 My tūpuna were on Mokoia during this attack, and my tupuna kuia was one of those taken up north by Hongi's ope. Thankfully she returned after many years away, settled back here at Maketū and was eventually buried with her father, who was one of the chiefs, on Mokoia. We've never known what happened to her in Northland, but this episode gives us an idea of what may have been a very nasty fate. I hope she was treated well as a woman of status, and not a slave. I feel very sad pondering this 😥 Moe mai rā, e kui 🙏
This may be of some consolation but many women and men of rank were treated reasonably as there was always the chance of exchanging them for some peace or prisoner settlements. Iwi back then tried to always maintain a plan B....The release of prisoners/slaves started after 1840 when the British outlawed slavery and many returned to their old lands. They were always somewhat tainted by their captive/slave experience that they had led. Times were hard back then, very hard.
@@kiwicodgerThank you for that 🙏 We don't know how old she was at the time she was taken. Some say she may have only been a very small child. So my concern watching your video is that she may not have been old enough to be a woman of rank, and instead was a child slave. I guess we'll never know, but I just said a karakia for her after watching your video. That her soul is realised from any pain and suffering she may have endured back then 🙏 What horrific times they lived in 😰😳🤯
@@mystik.mermayde.aotearoa Breeding was a big thing back then, your lineage and status was known. You did not develop status, you were born with it. There were exceptions of course but social structure was well defined. Men could rise through their warrior prowess, it was more difficult for women, but they had their ways as well.
Thanks so much for this little series..so fascinating!!! I would LOVE to hear more about this 🙏🙏🙏
CAN WE GET A W IN THE CHAT FOR KIWI CODGER 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
KIWI CODGER ON TOP 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
nah you forgot to mention the part where Nga Puhi had actually attacked the wrong people... why do you think Whakatane and Opotiki tribes were freaking out so bad when they had finished this campaign and were sailing back north? because they were actually after NGAI TE RANGI/NGATI RANGIWEWEHI..... thats why people are so hurt and bitter about it... get your story right.
Your comment requires one to assume that Hongi Hika and the other chiefs of Nga Puhi, and other tribes that joined this expidition, were f@ckwits, and I can assure you that they were not.
Thank you so much for unveiling these moments in history. I grew up in Point England/Glen Innes & have been to Tahuna Torea multiple times. It is amazing to hear these accounts from a time that is not that long ago really.
I said WOW a few times while listening to this, I have hunted these hills many times including Kotepato, Nikau, Manganuku, Te Waiiti, Koranga forks there's some very Knarly country in there if beautiful, the valley above the Kotepatu would be a great hiding spot too Its entrance is very hidden but once you climb a small gulley it opens into a broad valley and was always my favourite hunt for days of dubious weather. I have met some local characters in there hunting on horseback man those horses can climb hills with a man on their back I can barely crawl up. I have always wondered at that river flat on the Redpaths farm it always looked ideal to me as a settlement and felt people must have lived there now I know even if they were not there long :) I also have some whanau connections to Omaramutu Marae will definitely have so many more questions when I next visit. I am buying the book and am so grateful for both your work.
Just to add the hill between Kotepato hut and the Waioeka I climbed it once (looking for a stag roaring) near the top is a clear patch or two that have excellent views down the valley you would see anyone approaching or signals from lookouts further down the valley and communicate with the Waipuna Pa site below easily.

A bit disappointing to hear of the brutal treatment of Maori women by the men . Was this common to all tribes?
In Cruise's 10 month stay he had experience with Maori in the Bay of Islands (Ngapuhi et al), Whangaroa Harbour (Ngati Pou et al) and along the Tamaki River in Auckland (Ngati Paoa and Ngati Whatua). I think he also visited the Coromandel. I have a feeling it was common to all tribes. Maori society back then was a very male dominated one.
@@kiwicodger Thanks for this info. I have read that Maori children were cherished however. Was I misinformed?
@@mikev4621 It comes down to individuals , just like today. Times were very tough back then. If there were too many mouths to feed, sometime if a daughter was born, it was killed. In general though Maori loved there kids like we do today, but remebre life was hard and fragile and discipline was necessary and strict, it was needed to survive.
Found You Today And Your Videos Of My Family History, Lots Of Information To Be Found Of Hongi, Not A Lot Tho Of His Daughter Pehi, Later Taking The Name Maraea Then Maria, Married Stephen Wrathall.
Hi Amanda, I do not know much of Pehi. Who was her mother?
@@kiwicodger research suggests,Turikatuku or Tangiwhare. Pehi changed her name prior to her marriage to Stephen.
Māori never migrated they simply journeyed returned home..
I guess Te Rauparaha and Ngati Toa forgot to go home....
The Stream you refer to is not the original Mataharehare as agreed to by Te kawau The original came out at St Georges Bay, and not Hobson Bay You can see theis in the Maps of 1840 But in later 1841-42 iterations, they shifted the boundary. George Clarke was well aware of this as Te Kawau mentioned he had not sold that land and his nephew Tūhaere petitioned successive Governors with no reward. A classic land acquisition tactic of those times.
Tāmaki (Te Rēweti) was not his nephew, but Te Kawau's eldest son, who passed away in or around the time Hobson did.
Do you have any references I can look up.
Watched about ten episodes now, fantastic and thorough stuff Kiwicodger! Really enjoying it and learning a lot too. thanks
Binge watching is a good policy with my videos I reckon.
These Nga puhi seem to quite a military force for such a tribe.
Ngapuhi from around the Bay of Islands got the muskets first and quickly used them before other tribes acquired them. The Auckland tribes were far more advanced than Ngapuhi, but without muskets, they were doomed. Ngapuhi were the dominant military force up until around 1826/27 when other tribes started acquiring muskets in quantity. After that Ngapuhi were just another tribe and the Waikato tribes started their ascendency. There was plenty of utu owing for the musket wars to have gone on for another 100 years, and would have if not for the British and the Treaty of Waitangi.
I wonder if this warrior gene is an evolutionary trait, it seems to not be in other Polynesians
When you look back in history, all peoples went through terrible conflicts. Its part of being human. The Society we have today run by rules and laws is a miracle.
I am te arawa 2 shah
Did Mataatua come from Tikehau?
Hongi is my ancestor. Thank you for teaching me so much of my history. Looking forward to the rest of the series
Thank you for your amazing work both of you. I am descended from Maori and pakeha mentioned in your work Kiwi Codger. And I can connect with so many of the stories you have shared.
OMG this is blowing my mind!!! Thank you so much for your kōrero with Jean Pierre 🙏🌟👏🌟🙏
Historical information Rawe!
Good to see this bit of history , i think te rauparaha said he was unhappy that muaupoko escaped
Major Kemp was just a child when he escaped on his mother's back across the lake. He would play a large role in NZ History
so when is live stream happening? or have i missed it
Fantastic presentation. Thank you for bringing this history back to us in this era to appreciate.
Such great discussion The honest recognition of how history is always n slanted to some degree! The horror of musket warfare driven by old customs (which may've had a differing slant pre muskets) creating a genocide of 1 tribe against another! without this genuine account the full effects of the destruction of at least HALF of Maori population can barely be comprehended. In todays history ...in Germany proper (just the actual german state) "only "@ 250000 jews disappeared from the total German population 80 millions = 1 jew to @ 500 citizens. in NZ 1840 it was ONE TO ONE! on top of moved tribal survivors, slave displacement , western bugs , (measles etc etc ) alcohol, tobacco, & class distinction let alone the existing Maori class system of the day ,this is a huge undiscussed subject! Finally things are NOT improved by "educated" folks (including x PM ) who cannot define a WOMAN & are driven by cancelling , hate speech, censorship , & undefined wokery. We SO need your honesty facts & wisdom.
Thank you a very well reasoned account! Kaikoura was certainly crushed somehow whether by battle or abandonment (possibly after Omihi defeat!) But one or possibly two canoes under construction in the Kaikoura bush were abandoned . I saw one @ 1959 but when I described its location to others who claimed to have seen it ...they described different area! . Last I heard it had a shelter over it.
So interesting, thank you, just visited Auckland now going to watch your vids and get caught up on the country! Love the way you present the information. Priceless stuff!
Most da fullas moaning bout da way dis fulla pronounces Maori words probably pronounce English words like dis aye ow g 🤦🤣
