title: Tapua
text: Tapua (c.1730-c.1800) was a Māori rangatira, arikinui of the Ngati Hao hapū, of what became the Ngāpuhi confederation. His base was the Kaikohe and nearby Hokianga area of northern Aotearoa. Tapua was also the tohunga of Ngati Hao and famed as a great warrior in the tradition of the fighting rangatira (chiefs) of Ngāpuhi. Tapua saw James Cook's ship when it visited in 1769, becoming one of the first Māori people to have contact with Europeans.
