Māngungu at Horeke in the Hokianga has been added to the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero as wāhi tūpuna - a place important to Māori for ancestral significance and associated cultural and traditional values.
Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Northland manager Atareira Heihei says while Māngungu Mission House is already listed as a Category 1 historic place, it was important to acknowledge the deep connection many Māori have to the wider landscape.
By providing a base for Wesleyan missionaries in the late 1820s, rangatira such as Eruera Maihi Patuone, Tāmati Waka Nene, Makoare Te Taonui, and Muriwai made Māngungu a significant place of cultural exchange on the Hokianga Harbour.

In the MTG collection is a small chunk of wood, which was on show in the recent On Art and Activism exhibition.
This piece of wood is part of a flagpole first cut down in July 1844, again in January 1845 (twice) and for the fourth time on March 11 of the same year. The final felling of this particular flagpole signalled a tipping point in the northern land-grab wars and the start of the New Zealand land-grab wars.
