Portrait of Te Rangihaeata
Portrait of the Ngati Toa leader and warrior, Te Rangihaeata.
Te Rangihaeata and his uncle, Te Rauparaha, led their tribe during the Wairau incident of 1843. Te Rangihaeata's wife, Te Rongo, was killed during the fighting and he took utu (revenge) by killing the Europeans taken prisoner at Wairau.
