The Story of the HOROUTA WAKA

I have been Learning about Story of the HOROUTA. The waka broke when Paoa and Kiwa came to New Zealand. Paoa went and cut down a tree. He floated it down the river to Gisborne. Kiwa fixed the waka a bit and came to Gisborne. He waited for Paoa to come. Gisborne is called Turanganui-a-Kiwa because it means the waiting place of Kiwa.
