Tūnui-ā-rangi
Great Māori migration waka

In Māori tradition, Tūnui-ā-rangi was one of the great ocean-going, voyaging canoes (or waka) that was used in the migrations that settled Aotearoa (New Zealand). The waka is linked to the Ngāi Tāhuhu iwi of the Auckland and Northland regions.

The Tūnui-ā-rangi is said to have landed at Motu Kōkako (Piercy Island) in the Bay of Islands. [1] It then traveled south to Ngunguru and Whangārei. [1]
