The earliest dated archaeological settlements in New Zealand, are both from the South Island. The Wairau Bar in Marlborough, and the mouth of the Waihemo river in Otago. These date to the 13th century.
There may have been earlier settlements, which have been destroyed by volcanic activity, or erosion and deposition, but these remain to be discovered.
Recent evidence shows that a tsunami crossed the north Auckland peninsula, and this could destroy evidence for example.
