6. Houpure [557] (Tamamoko , Tamahotu , TUMOANA ).
Rapunga Kupu Akoako: (korero taken from "the tribes of Muriwhenua"et al) Houpure;
credited with beginning one of the two descent lines that culminated in the Te Rarawa Iwi, the other
person being Moetonga. He lived originally with his father Tamamoko and his brother Houmeaiti at
Hokianga. Houpure and Houmeaiti fought Ngati Awa and Ngati Miru who were living north of the
Hokianga and took possession of their land dividing it between them. Houmeaiti took the portion
between Hokianga and Ahipara and Houpure the land north of Ahipara. The Ngati Awa cheif was
Kauri, a notable man, who was defeated and fled eventually to Whakatane. Patito was killed in that
battle, but Ngati Miru stayed in the feild fighting two major battles in short succession at
Rangimitimiti and Rangiawhiao. Their cheif Moetaraiti then pulled back his war party to Rotokakahi
in the upper Whangape area which was the homeland of Ngati Miru. Toakai, Patitos son pursued
Ngati Miru to Rotokakahi to avenge his fathers death. He killed Moetaraiti and took two of the
Ngati Miru PA, Ongaroa and Iwitangata at the Rotokakahi river. Only the PA near Whangape was
left to be taken. The spirit of his slain father was said to have appeared to him, warning him not to
go into battle because he too would lose his life. Toakai had enormous confidence in his own
fighting prowess, did not heed the warning and was killed. The saga of Utu and revenge continued.
Toakais nephew, Tamariki made peace with Ngati Miru at Rotokakahi. Tamariki proceeded back
north to Ahipara. One hundred and forty Ngati Miru were then invited to cement this peace at
Ahipara. They were treacherously slain by Tamarikis party. After this Ngati Miru abandoned
Rotokakahi and fled to Taimai further south in Ngapuhi territory.
