Details
Te Kahu-o-te-rangi, originally Te Wainohu (died 1824) was a Māori rangatira (chieftain) of the Ngāti Kahungunu iwi and founder of Ngāti Pāhauwera in the Mohaka area of Hawke Bay of New Zealand. He was the leader of an expedition that successfully took revenge on Te Whānau-ā-Apanui for earlier attacks, but in this fight he was outshone by his cousin Te-O-Tane, which led to a long conflict between the two chiefs. Eventually, Te Kahu-o-te-rangi received the name Te Kahu-o-te-rangi from Te-O-Tane as a peace offering. Te Kahu-o-te-rangi also laid down boundaries for his territory, but there are differing accounts on the exact course of these borders. His descendants are named Ngāti Pāhauwera ("people of the singed beard"), because his beard was burnt when his head was being preserved after his death.
