Summary of New Zealand Wars (part 2)
Te ua
There were movements around NZ about the new zealand wars they were peaceful at first then became more voilent. Te ua became a profit in 1862 and made a new religion called “pai marie - good and peaceful” he got sent to the chatham islands because people thought that he was a spy while he was away europeans took his land te ua became very sick and saw an angel
Te kote
The British killed two young unarmed boys. Te kote was also sent to the chatham islands. He got sick there and heard god's voice, they found a ship with supplies in it and they sailed back to NZ. After he was back he wanted revenge so he attacked the village that sent him to the chatham islands with his followers they killed about 60 people the village wanted to kill all of the village and the pai ma followers they killed about 120 people in te kote’s village, he didnt die he escaped.
Te toku ware
He was the new leader but he didnt wanna fight in the war, But he really was a military genius.
The land
Te toke said that he ate human flesh as a lie to scare the people, The british set bounties on pai marie followers because they didnt like them. In 1863 the land was legally confiscated from the maori, sacred hills were quaried, 800 year old burial sites were demolished. It wasnt about the land it was about the cultural spirits.
About 3,000 people died from the wars.
