  Ngāi Tahu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ngāi Tahu, or Kāi Tahu, is the principal iwi (tribe) of the southern region of New Zealand.
Kāi Tahu are descended from Tahu Potiki, son of Paikea (of Whale Rider fame), and are thus related to Ngati Porou.
Kāi Tahu is recognised as having a distinct dialect of Maori, often referred to as Southern Maori.

 Ngai Tahu Land Report
Ngai Tahu see their mahinga kai in a holistic way, but for reasons given earlier, the tribunal had to sever sea fisheries and a number of ancillary claims from this study of the principal land claims.
The claimants alleged that Ngai Tahu had been dispossessed of their mahinga kai, in breach of article 2 of the Treaty and, in the case of the Kemp purchase, contrary to the terms of the Kemp deed.
The Crown argument was founded on the notion that Ngai Tahu, at the time of signing the deeds, could foresee the future and were prepared to relinquish all but their most important mahinga kai in anticipation of other benefits to come from European settlement.

To recognise the rangatiratanga of Ngāi Tahu, and the roles and responsibilities of the Department, both of which are initially given effect to by the preparation of this Plan, and the co-operative management of Te Waihora and its resources.
Access to identified mahinga kai places and resources is necessary to enable customary use for kaumātua and other Ngāi Tahu Whānui to facilitate the passing down of tikanga and mātauranga (the knowledge of natural resources and traditional practices) as it relates to Te Waihora.
The Minister or Ngāi Tahu depending on the land involved may allow, on a case by case basis, vehicular access for customary use within the JMP Area by Ngāi Tahu Whānui, where this is consistent with the policies and other methods of this Plan.

 Crown Apology to Ngai Tahu
The Crown recognises the protracted labours of the Ngai Tahu ancestors in pursuit of their claims for redress and compensation against the Crown for nearly 150 years, as alluded to in the Ngai Tahu proverb 'He mahi kai takata, he mahi kai hoaka' ('It is work that consumes people, as greenstone consumes sandstone').
The Crown expresses its profound regret and apologises unreservedly to all members of Ngai Tahu Whanui for the suffering and hardship caused to Ngai Tahu, and for the harmful effects which resulted to the welfare, economy and development of Ngai Tahu as a tribe.
The Crown apologises to Ngai Tahu for its past failures to acknowledge Ngai Tahu rangatiratanga and mana over the South Island lands within its boundaries, and, in fulfilment of its Treaty obligations, the Crown recognises Ngai Tahu as the tangata whenua of, and as holding rangatiratanga within, the Takiwa of Ngai Tahu Whanui.

One native told me that after the Kai Tahu had pressed the Kati Mamoe back and back from Canterbury into Murihiku [Southland], and peace was made, a post was erected at Poupoutunoa [Clinton] to mark the tribal boundary.
The Kai Tahu were supposed to have no territorial rights beyond that.
Speaking of the sale of the Otakou block to the Pakeha in 1844, one of my informants remarked that it was a noticeable fact that the Kai Tahu sold the land and the Kati Mamoe preserved the reserves.

Kai Tahu o Murihiku formed Te Ao Marama Inc (Rōpu Whakahaere), which is made up of two representatives each from the Awarua, Hokonui, Oraka-Aparima and Waihopai rūnanga (eight in total).
One important thing to bear in mind with this example is that Kai Tahu have the advantages of settlement assets, which have enabled the investment in time and money to achieve their structure.
Kai Tahu ki Otago has developed separate protocols with Dunedin City Council, Waitaki District Council, Clutha District Council, Central Otago District Council, Queenstown Lakes District Council and Otago Regional Council for defining the process for facilitating iwi consultation in the resource consent process.

The lagoon was also used for recreational purposes by local Kai Tahu until set aside as a wildlife reserve by the Department of Internal Affairs in 1973.

 Pac-It: A video on a traditional use of packaging - Main Page
For centuries, Kai Tahu Whanui ki Rakiura (Southern Ngai Tahu) sustainably harvested titi (muttonbirds) on and around Rakiura (Stewart Island).
The annual titi harvest was of paramount importance to the lifestyle of Kai Tahu Whanui and they ensured that their mokopuna (descendants) would continue to enjoy that privilege and had their customary rights recognised and protected by the Deed of Stewart Island, signed between rakatira (local chiefs) and the Crown in 1864.
The 9m 47s video is a brief look at the descendants of the rakatira: Te Pähi, and their island Pikomamaku-nui on which the process of preserving titi is done largely as their tipuna (ancestors) did.

A further wave of settlement occurred with the arrival in Kaikoura of Waitaha, then Kati Mamoe and then, during the seventeenth century, the Kati Kuri hapu of Kai Tahu.
Kaikoura was sold as part of the Wairau Purchase of 1847 by Ngati Toa, who had conquered much of the northern half of the South Island during the 1830s.
Kai Tahu disputed Ngati Toa’s right to sell this land and in 1856 the government agreed to compensate Kai Tahu, however inadequately, for the land sold by Ngati Toa, which lay between Kaikoura and Kaiapoi.
