Ngati Awa
Ngati Awa is a iwi (tribe) consisting of a confederation of 22 hapu (sub-tribes) located around Whakatane, Te Teko and Matata in the North Island of Aotearoa / New Zealand. In addition to the traditional hapu there are two urban based hapu, Ngati Awa-ki-Tamaki at Auckland and Ngati Awa-ki-Poneke at Wellington. According to the 1996 Census around 11,000 people registered their affiliation with Ngati Awa. Ngati Awa derives its name from Awanuiarangi, son of the famous Toikairakau, who settled in the Bay of Plenty many generations before the arrival of Pakeha to Aotearoa.
