Tūtohu whenua
This is the story of the waka Araiteuru and the role it played in shaping the landscape of Te Waipounamu. Led by navigator Hipo, Araiteuru successfully introduced kūmara and taro to Aotearoa and Te Waipounamu. Araiteuru faced disaster during a treacherous storm and eventually capsized at Matakaea, where its upturned hull is still visible. Crew members and cargo were lost overboard and transformed into significant landmarks, including Aoraki and his whānau who transformed to become Kā Tiritiri o te Moana.
