In 1859 a Austrian Geologist Ferdinand Von Hoschetter visited the area and recorded his observations that were even for then quite rare for non Maori to see. This Moteatea was written by Rangi Harrison in 1987 that worked for the local electricity company: Mighty River Power a government company at the time. Mighty River power owned most of the Power Station Sites at the Waikato End of the river including the one in Huntly which thanks to the NZ Government has been sold off. As part of his job Rangi had to visit every site and maintain the different catchments throughout the river, there were things he saw that were spiritual and magnificent which is what lead him to right this waiata. It was never done just for kapa haka. Moteatea is a specific way of remembering specific events, genealogies and geographical landmarks. This Moteatea is all of those things, you have land marks, tupuna and stories that most local know of. This is also one of our tribal anthems.

Could I ask please where you learnt this korero, naa te mea he uri teenei noo Pare Waikato and I am am looking for informayion that I can use to explain the back ground of this mooteatea. I ask because this mooteatea was printed in Te Ao Hou 1963, contradicting what you have said, being written in 1987. Or is this an updated version of the original. Naaku noa

@79uhakaoT Yeah I understood what you meant but it wasn't very nice is all. Perhaps it was just someone who didn't like the way it was sung or someone who learned it differently. Or perhaps it was just someone who despises Tainui lol. I'm just saying you can't just make such a bold racist comment like that, we should be trying to make our country a better place :) Freedom is win.
