These distinctions are made primarily on grain size. Over much of the Bay a relatively coarse sediment layer, sampled by coring, appears as a subsurface reflector on echo-sounding records. This layer underlies the relatively fine sedi­ ments of the mud belt and outcrops in the central zone. Shell material from the central zone has been 14C-dated as approximately 10,000 years B.P. The subsurface reflector shows the effect of faulting. The sand belt separates the mud belt from the shoreline and the distribution of these two zones appears to be governed by present-day sedimentation. The central zone and parts of the Lachlan Ridge are at present non-sedimentation areas. Other parts of the Lachlan Ridge are areas. of slow sedimentation. Clastic minerals in the sediments of the Bay are mainly derived from the Mesozoic grey­ wacke suite of the North Island or from the Taupo volcanic sequence, Quaternary in age, which covers a wide area in the region of Lake Taupo and includes ash layers extending as far as the coast of Hawke Bay. Tertiary sedimentary rock fragments are common only on the Lachlan Ridge. Authigenic glauconite is present on the Lachlan Ridge and in part of the sand belt. The mineral occurs as ovoids, subangular grains, pumice vesicle infillings, and foraminiferal infillings. Yellowish pumice infillings, which occur in the central zone and on parts of the Lachlan Ridge, apparently owe their colour to primary authigenic limonite. Secondary authigenic limonite, formed by the oxidation of glauconite, is found in the same areas as the latter mineral. TOPOGRAPHICAL AND GEOLOGICAL SETTING Hawke Bay is a conspicuous re-entrant on the Tangoio Bluff and Matangimomoe a long line of =.ast coast of the North Island, New Zealand, cliffs rises from 200 ft in the south to nearly measuring some 50 miles from north-east to 1300 ft in the north.

  • History Time Line of Napier and Hawke's
    HISTORY TIME LINE OF NAPIER AND HAWKE’S BAY A partial timeline of Napier and Hawke’s Bay 1769-1974. Port Ahuriri 1866 by Charles Decimus Barraud, 1822-1897: A view from Bluff Hill, Napier, looking north down to Westshore and Port Ahuriri. There are houses on a spit of land surrounded by water and further low- lying islands without houses. A steam ship and a number of sailing ships can be seen in the harbor. Ref: D-040-002. Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington, New Zealand. /records/32199839 Introduction: Ngāti Kahungunu trace their origins to the Tākitimu waka, which arrived in Aotearoa from Rarotonga around 1100-1200 AD. Tamatea Ariki Nui, the captain of Tākitimu, settled in Tauranga, and is buried on top of Mauao, called Mount Maunganui today. Tamatea Ariki Nui had a son called Rongokako, and he had a son called Tamatea Pokai Whenua Pokai Moana, which means “Tamatea explorer of land and sea.” It is from Tamatea Pokai Whenua Pokai Moana that we have the longest place name, located at Porongahau – “Taumatawhakatangihangakōauauatamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronuku pokaiwhenuakitānatahu” where Tamatea Pokai Whenua Pokai Moana played a flute to his lover. It is the son of Tamatea Pokai Whenua Pokai Moana named Kahungunu that Ngāti Kahungunu comes from. Kahungunu travelled widely and eventually settled on the East Coast. His grandson Rakaihikuroa, migrated with his son Taraia, their families and followers, from Nukutaurua on the Māhia Peninsula to Heretaunga (Hawke’s Bay area). Eventually, Heretaunga was brought under the control of his people, who became the first Ngāti Kahungunu as we know it today in Hawke’s Bay.
