Abstract

[This chapter concludes Part II with a re-examination of several important gaps and issues left silent or unresolved in the official records in an attempt better to understand the relationships between the migrant marriage alliance and three of the leading rangatira of Ngāi Tūhoe: Te Whenuanui II for Te Urewera hapū and the migrant marriage alliance, Tutakangahau for Tamakaimoana hapū, and Numia Kererū for Ngāti Rongo hapū. Numia’s strategy and final triumph emerged in the context of his rising influence as a commissioner as well as rangatira, Te Whenuanui II’s unexpected death and Numia’s exploitation of the opportunity to influence his successor and overcome his support in the migrant marriage alliance, and his uncompromising control of the Ruatāhuna partition. However, Numia Kererū Te Ruakariata died in 1916, in the middle of the Crown purchase campaign that had begun by circumventing his control of the General Committee, having helplessly to witness the relentless pressure upon pupuri whenua ‘non-sellers’ to give up their last shares of ancestral land in each of the original blocks of the UDNR he had worked so hard to establish. Perhaps his uncompromising kaha toa, a warrior’s determination, nevertheless enabled him to foresee the little victories Tūhoe would continue to win in the face of the Crown’s power.]
