'''Tinirau and Kae.''' http://collections.tepapa.govt.nz/exhibitions/whales/Segment.aspx?irn=189 http://www.teara.govt.nz/EarthSeaAndSky/OceanStudyAndConservation/TangaroaTheSea/3/en '''Paikea''' According to legend, Paikea came to New Zealand from the Pacific Islands on the back of a whale many centuries ago. His descendants are Ngati Porou and Ngai Tahu. Although Paikea is tipuna to Ngai Tahu he is mostly associated with Ngati Porou. Many people ask why do we say Ko ________ te waka when Ngati Porou and Ngai Tahu come from Paikea, well Paikea's decendant married another decendant who came on Horouta sorry i forgot the names. So yeah but just look on Wikipedia although people change it, it's all acurate
