Te Teira Manuka (c. 1812 – 16 September 1882), also known as Pokikake Te Teira, was a Taranaki Māori nobleman. A lesser rangatira of Te Āti Awa, he was the leader of its Puke-Kowhatu hapū. However, he is best remembered for his fraudulent sale of the Waitara block to the Crown as negotiated by Governor Thomas Gore Browne, in violation of customary title and Te Āti Awa tikanga. The unauthorised sale led to a crisis in the entire region, and subsequently caused the First Taranaki War.
