Rewi Maniapoto Reserve | Aotearoa New Zealand Histories Walking Tour 4K

On this Aotearoa New Zealand history tour we are exploring Rewi Maniapoto Reserve. Rewi Maniapoto Reserve is located in the main street of Kihikihi. The monument pays respect to Remi Maniapoto who was a prominent Kingitanga leader, and chief of Ngāti Maniapoto.
It was erected in the year of his death, 1894, and has been added to in the subsequent years.
He is recognised for his role during the 1863-64 New Zealand Land Wars, and in particular for leading the Maori stand in the battle of Ōrākau which took place 5km to the east of the memorial.
The story of Rewi Maniapoto has been represented in two films titled 'Rewi's Last Stand.'
🔴 In this video series looking at the New Zealand Land Wars, we aim to present the places as they are . We understand that it is not possible to tell the many complex stories of a location with one video, rather we want to make these places available to be visited virtually.
🔴 This is one of the sites of the New Zealand Land Wars Waikato driving tour. For more information about this site, we have collected some resources which can be used to understand more context -
