URU KEHU
Legend Maori
“The ancient seas roared under the influence of the moon and the stars and the Uru Kehu o Nga Tupuna finally disembarked. Our ancestors with the red and golden hair arrived to our island. Most of them perished in the cold ocean when the sea broke their ship into a thousand pieces. Not all perished; some men and women were saved together with their children. This was the arrival of those of whom our old ones have spoken. According to them, We are the children of different colors, descendants of different currents and we travel over different seas to find each other… “
As Manuel Tuki confirms;

Felipe Pakarati shares that opinión. “The reality is that there were many European ships which visited the Island a long time before it was seen by the Dutchman Rogeveen and there were certainly enough men among them to reproduce.”
