DNZB / BIOGRAPHY (1534 words)
Nahe's history began with the building of the Tainui canoe in Hawaiki, its arrival in Aotearoa (New Zealand), and the events associated with Hotunui, his son Maru-tuahu, and the establishment of their descendants at Hauraki, in the Coromandel Peninsula and the Thames district.
Nahe was always very bitter about the fall of Te Totara pa, deeming it to be a treacherous attack made after Ngati Maru had negotiated a peace in return for the famous greenstone mere, Te Uira.
Nahe was also a member of the runanga of Hauraki, and in this capacity he was called on to adjudicate in the matter of the shooting and wounding of Daldy MacWilliams, a surveyor, on 29 August 1879.
