NgÄi TÄmanuhiri (also known as NgÄti TÄmanuhiri) is a MÄori iwi of New Zealand. Their rohe (tribal lands) are located to the south of Poverty Bay in the Gisborne Region of New Zealand. The mouth of the Waipaoa River marks the northern boundary.[1] Iwi affairs are managed by the NgÄi TÄmanuhiri WhÄnui Trust.[1]
The iwi consists of descendants of TÄmanuhiri and his two wives Rongomaiawhia and Hine Nui of NgÄi Tahupo. Tamanuhiri himself was a descendant of Tahu-Potiki, the brother of Porourangi. The five main hapu of Ngai Tamanuhiri today are descended mainly from Tamanuhiri's two sons from his first wife Rongomaiawhea, Tamaraukura and Paea-o-Te-Rangi, and they are Ngati Rangiwaho Matua, Ngai Tawehi, Ngati Kahutia, Ngati Rangi-tauwhiwhia and Ngati Rangiwaho.[2][3]
Turanga FM is the radio station of Turanganui-a-kiwa iwi, including Ngai Tamanuhiri, Rongowhakaata and Te Aitanga-a-MÄhaki. It is based in Gisborne, and broadcasts on 98.1 FM in Ruatoria, and 91.7 FM and 95.5 FM in Gisborne.[4][5]
