The printed copy of the Treaty

The Waikato copy is the only surviving printed copy of the Treaty of Waitangi. All the others are written in longhand. It was one of 200 copies of the Maori text printed in Paihia on 17 February 1840. This copy is most likely an adjunct to the Waikato-Manukau copy, in English, that missionary Robert Maunsell received in late March or early April 1840. Maunsell witnessed all five names on the sheet. The chiefs, from Ngati Pou on the Waikato River and Ngati Te Wehi at Raglan, may have been visiting Maunsell's station at the mouth of the Waikato River.
