  New Zealand's Maori queen dies: World: News: News24
Te Ata was the seventh Maori sovereign, a direct descendant of a royal line that began in 1858 when the Maori responded to Britain's colonisation of New Zealand by choosing a monarch of their own.
Te Ata was the longest-serving head of the Kingitanga (King) movement, which largely was a response to continual Maori land losses as European settlers flocked to the British colony and took land from the indigenous people.
Te Ata became Maori queen in May 1966, the day her father, King Koroki Te Rata Mahuta Tawhiao, was buried, and was immediately catapulted into a role that included mixing with some of the world's most influential people.
