| | Afterwards came Rangi (=Heaven), Papa (=Earth), the Winds, and other Sky-powers, as are recorded in the genealogical traditions preserved to the present time. | | | In the forms of karakia addressed to the spirits of ancestors, the concluding words are generally a petition to the Atua invoked to give force or effect to the karakia as being derived through the Tipua, the Pukenga, and the Whananga, and so descending to the living Tauira. | | | After Hinenuitepo fled away to her ancestors in the realms of Night, she gave birth to Te Po-uriuri (= The Dark one), and to Te Po-tangotango (= The very dark), and afterwards to Pare-koritawa, who married Tawaki, one of the race of Rangi. |

| | To Ngati Rangi, Ruapehu is a most sacred place held in the highest sacred regard not only because of ancient burial places or historical physical associations they hold with their mountain but because of spiritual and powerful forces that emanate from it. | | | Hence Ngati Rangi have the deepest spiritual association with Ruapehu, an association that can not be easily explained by words. | | | Ngati Rangi, whose rohe (tribal area) includes the southern part of Mt Ruapehu, have issued the following statement which outlines their position on the Crater Lake lahar threat: |

| | Rangi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In Polynesian mythology (specifically: Maori), Rangi is the sky father, husband of the Earth Mother, Papa. | | | They had many children, but their embrace (as the Earth and the sky) threatened to crush plants, trees and their offspring, so the other gods (or just Tangaroa) separated them and light first appeared between them. | | | Fog is said to be the sighs of loneliness of Papa, while the dew is the tears of Rangi. |
