Iwi (Māori pronunciation:) are the largest social units in New Zealand Māori society. In Māori, iwi roughly means ' people ' or ' nation ', [1] [2] and is often translated as "tribe", [3] or "a confederation of tribes". The word is both singular and plural in the Māori language, and is typically pluralised as such in English.
The name refers to the ancestor Huakaiwaka, who in the 1600s joined Ngā Oho, Ngā Riki and Ngā Iwi to form a confederation that spanned the region for three generations, until the mid-1700s. [1] Members of this rōpū include Te Ākitai Waiohua, Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki, Te Kawerau ā Maki, Ngāti Tamaoho and Ngāti Te Ata. [4]
Ngāti Hine is an iwi with a rohe in Northland, New Zealand. It is part of the wider Ngāpuhi iwi. [1] Its rohe (tribal area) covers the areas of Waiomio, Kawakawa, Taumarere, Moerewa, Motatau, Waimahae, Pakaraka, Otiria, Pipiwai, Kaikou and Te Horo. [1]
Te Atiawa o Te Waka-a-Māui Trust is recognised by the New Zealand Government as the governance entity of the iwi, following its Treaty of Waitangi settlement with the Crown under the Ngāti Kōata, Ngāti Rārua, Ngāti Tama ki Te Tau Ihu, and Te Ātiawa o Te Waka-a-Māui Claims Settlement Act 2014.

Te Tau Ihu Māori are a group of Māori iwi in the upper South Island of New Zealand. It includes Ngāti Kuia, Rangitāne, Ngāti Tūmatakōkiri and Ngāti Apa ki te Rā Tō (from the Kurahaupō canoe), Ngāti Koata, Ngāti Rārua and Ngāti Toa (from the Tainui canoe), and Ngāti Tama and Te Atiawa o Te Waka-a-Māui (from the Tokomaru canoe of Taranaki).
Ngā Oho was used as a unifying name for Tainui peoples in Tāmaki Makaurau. [4] By the 14th century, Ngā Oho had settled in the Waitākere Ranges area. [5] Ngā Oho's rohe once spanned from Cape Rodney/Okakari Point near Leigh to Tauranga. [2] The iwi is named either after one of two historical rangatira Ohomairangi, or Ohomatakamokamo. [1]
