Raupa, near Paeroa, Hauraki Plains

documentary heritage
  • Description

    Reconstruction of Raupa depicted in the late afternoon of 17 June 182 when the Rev. Samuel Marsden and his party were welcomed to the settlement by the chief, probably Te Hikamate of Ngati Tamatera. Depiction of the visitors and host group is based upon Marsden's description. The size and orientation of the large house depend upon the 1987 archaeological evidence, as do the cooking area and storage pit at the right rear and the presence of pigs in the foreground.

    Through the gap in the stockade can be seen Mt Te Aroha. [Nigel Prickett. Records of the Auckland Institute and Museum, 27 3 November 199 page 149]
