Kaitiakitanga* means the exercise of guardianship; and in relation to a resource, includes the
ethic of guardianship
from an incident which arose during the siege of Otaka
Pa by neighbouring northern iwi in 1832. When discussing terms for peace a chief from the neighbouring iwi,
sought permission to go into Otaka to hold a tangi for his dead warriors. One inhabitant, Te Whau, ran out
towards the taua, was killed and her body dismembered and thrown into the stream. The stream was then
called Waitapu - wai (water) and tapu (sacred). This stream still runs through Waitapu Urupa today.
