About

Original sale and purchase land deed for the site of the city of Auckland / Tamaki Makaurau dated 29 July 1841 that would look great framed.

The Maori name for the isthmus of land between the Waitemata and Manukau harbours, bounded by the canoe portages at Te Atatu and Otahuhu.

This is a reproduction from 1974.

The deed “He Pukapuka Hoko Wenua” was prepared in te reo and a gathering of officials formed outside Symonds hut above Official Bay. Clarke describes the occasion “where, to the satisfaction of all parties, we finally adjusted the considerations for the land, the deed of conveyance being read to the chiefs in the presence of His Excellency the Governor, the officers of the ‘Favorite’ and of several of the Civil Department”.

A full reference to this history can be viewed: https://tamaki-makaurau.com/category/article/

There are two separate sheets, one in English and one Te Reo Maori.
