Te Wherowhero - Part 9: The Migration South
Te Rauparaha's people, the Ngati Toa and their allies begin their migration south, abandoning their ancestral lands of Kawhia. Te Rangituatea, a kinsman of Te Rauparaha's, aids the flight by revealing to him, the plans of his enemies. Te Rauparaha and his party escape. They light campfires which disguise the strength of his meagre forces and discourage pursuit.
