Ngāti Ranginui |
Ngāti Ranginui are the descendants of ancestors who arrived on the Tākitimu waka and whose rohe extends from Otanewainuku, west of the Waimapu River to Tuapiro, north of Katikati and inland along the Kaimai Ranges. The area of interest includes the Athenree Forest and extends to the islands off the coast of Tauranga Moana as well as blocks outside the southern boundary of the Tauranga inquiry district.
