Wātaka - He Wātaka Mō Te Tiriti 1900-1949

I te wā o te matenga o Te Whiti i Parihaka, ka tū anō tētahi kāinga mō ngā mōrehu i Maungapōhatu, i te Urewera. Ko te tangata whenua ko ngā kaitautoko a te poropiti o Tūhoe nei, a Rua Kenana. Ka piri ētahi tāngata ki tēnei hapori, arā, he tāngata pukuriri ki ngā tikanga a te Pākehā. Ka tū te ātete whakamutunga a te iwi Māori mau pū i Maungapōhatu. Ko te mahi a Te Rua he whakakāhore i te rapu tangata hei hōia mō te Pakanga Tuatahi o te Ao, ā, ka takahia e ia ngā ture whakakore waipiro, i tana mahi hoko waipiro. Ka haere tētahi ope nui, ko te Kaikomihana o ngā Pirihimana te kāpene, ki te Urewera. Ka pakū ngā pū, ka mate te tama a Rua, ka mauheretia te poropiti. Ka whakaatatia i roto i ngā kōrero a Justice Chapman i te whakawā ngā whakaaro o te tini o te iwi Pākehā, i kī ai ia, ko te mauheretanga o Rua mō te 18 marama, "hei tohu ki tō iwi kia kaua e hoki ki ngā mahi pēnei i muri i tēnei whakawā".

I te tau 1918 i te toronga o te rongo o T.W. Rātana, ka whakatūria e te hāhi Rātana tētahi tari tūtata ki Whanganui. I haria e te hāhi Rātana ētahi o ngā tikanga tū pakari o Parihaka, engari ka whakangāwaritia tōna huri tuarā, tū wehe hoki. Ko te tino kaupapa matua ko te whakapono Karaitiana me te whakaora tangata. Ko ētahi o ngā whāinga o ōna kaihautū i pā ki te taha ōhanga, ki te whakahou hoki i te noho o te iwi. I te tekau tau mai i 1920 ka whakatūria e Ratana tana wāhanga tōrangapū, ā, mai i te tau 1935 ka oti tētahi kirimana mā rāua ko te rōpū Reipa. I raro i taua kirimana ka riro tonu mā te Rōpū Reipa e tohu ngā kaiārahi o te hāhi Rātana hei mema mō te Reipa i ngā rohe pōti Māori. Kia tae ki te tau 1943, kua wikitōria ngā tāngata Rātana/Reipa i ngā tūru Māori e whā, nā reira hoki kua kaha ake tō rātou reo i ngā hōro kāwana o Aotearoa. Ka whai kiko i konei te tū o ngā mōrehu o te Hāhi Rātana kia "whakamanaia" te Tiriti, arā, i te urunga atu o ngā mema hou ki te kapa Mema Pāremata o te taha Reipa.

Ka noho ko Tūrangawaewae i Ngāruawāhia te kāinga tūturu o te Kīngi Māori, arā, ngā whenua i hoki mai i muri i ngā pakanga me te muru raupatu o ngā tau 1860.

I runga anō i te pikinga o te pōti Rātana ka whakamanawatia a Tā Māui Pōmare, tētahi atu kaitōrangapū, kia whakahau ia kia haere tētahi uiuinga ki ngā muru raupatu o ngā 1860. Ka inoi a Pōmare ki ngā kaiahuwhenua miraka kau Māori kia koha moni mō tētahi uiuinga, ā, ka akiaki ia i a Pirīmia Gordon Coates ki te tautoko i taua whakaaro. Ka whakatūria te Komihana a te Kuini, ahakoa he pāpaku ana pūtea, he poto te wā mō te rangahau, he whāiti hoki ngā whakaritenga mō te mahi. Ka whakahau te Komihana kia tukua he kapiheihana mō ētahi o ngā raupatu i kīia ai e ia he taumaha rawa. I whakaae ngā iwi o Taranaki ki tētahi pūtea £5,000 mai i 1931, engari tērā anō ngā take raupatu i whakatārewatia ngā whakawhitiwhiti kōrero, taea noatia te tau 1944. Ka ara ake te mahi e kīia nei ko te Muru Raupatu, ko tāna he whai i te kapiheihana mō ngā whenua i ngaro, i muri i ngā mahi a Pōmare.

1929 Ka whakatūria ngĀ kĪma whakawhanake whenua MĀori

Apirana Turupa Ngata, ca 1905.

Ka whakatūria te kaupapa ahuwhenua Māori tuatahi e te Minita Māori, e Tā Apirana Ngata. Ka hoatu e te Kāwanatanga ētahi pūtea mō te whanaketanga o te whenua Māori, ā, i ētahi wā ka horaina he whenua Karauna itiiti mō ngā kīma. Ahakoa i whiria ngā kaipupuri whenua, kāore i tino tōtika te whakahaere a ētahi o ngā kaiahuwhenua Māori i ēnei kīma. Nā te kore i tino pai o ngā whakahaere a te Karauna i ētahi o aua kaupapa, ka piki ngā nama, i te mutunga ka tau ngā taumahatanga ki runga i ngā iwi anake. I ētahi wā, inā koa te Kaupapa Ahuwhenua o Ngāti Manawa, nō nakuanei te nama i ea ai. Ka tīmata te heke atu o te iwi Māori i te whenua ki ngā tāone, i ngā tekau tau mai i 1930, ā, nā te Pakanga Tuarua ka tino kaha kē ake tēnei āhua.

E rua tau i muri i te takohatanga o te whare o James Busby (Te Pūhipi) i Waitangi ki te whenua o Aotearoa e te Kāwana Tianara, e Lord Bledisloe, kātahi anō te Rā o Waitangi ka whakanuia, i te wāhi tonu i hainatia ai te Tiriti. Ka whakaingoatia te kāinga o Pūhipi ko te “Whare o te Tiriti” e te marea, ā, ka hangaia he whare rūnanga i te taha. I oti te whare rūnanga Māori i mua i te Huri Rau Tau o te tau 1940, i whakanuia ai te hainatanga o te Tiriti, hei āhuatanga taketake mō Aotearoa.

1944 E toru Ēnei whakatau

Eruera Tihema Te Aika Tirikātene, ca Oketopa 1949

Ka puea ake he Ture Whakatau Take, i muri i te Komihana a te Kuini o te tau 1926 me ētahi atu tirohanga. Nā ēnei Ture ka whiwhi kapiheihana ētahi iwi nunui, mō ngā whenua i raupatutia i te rau tau tekau mā iwa. Ko ngā whakatau matua e toru ko: Ngāi Tahu (£10,000 i te tau mō te 30 tau), ko Waikato-Maniapoto (£6,000 i te tau) me Taranaki (£6,000 i te tau mō te 50 tau, ka heke ki te £5,000 i ngā tau o muri). He mea whakarite ēnei e Tā Eruera Tirikātene MP, e Te Puea Hērangi, me Tā Maui Pōmare. Ka whakairia atu he kape o te Tiriti o Waitangi i ia kura, i ia kura, i ia marae, i ia marae, i te tau 1945.
