This is a traditional story told in te reo Maori from the perspective of the Kahui Maunga
people about Ngake and Whataitai. These two taniwha inhabited Te Whanganui-a-Tara,
Wellington Harbour, long before the ancestral migrations. The story tells how the shape and
landscape... of Wellington, its harbour and the Lower Hutt area came about because of the
actions of Ngake and Whataitai. Long ago, Te Whanganui a Tara was an enclosed lake, but
Ngake forced his way out into the sea by battering through the clenched teeth of the fish of
Maui to allow the fish to breathe. Whataitai was washed down the throat of the fish, causing

harbour, but Whataitai was stranded and grew weak and died, becoming part of the land
around the harbour
