"Rua Kenana Hepetipa or Rua K\u0113nana Hepetipa (1869 \u2013 20 February 1937) was a M\u0101ori prophet, faith healer and land rights activist. He called himself Te Mihaia Hou, the New Messiah, and claimed to be Te Kooti Arikirangi's successor Hepetipa (Hephzibah) who would reclaim T\u016Bhoe land that had been lost to P\u0101keh\u0101 ownership. Rua's beliefs split the Ringat\u016B Church, which Te Kooti had founded in around 1866/1868. In 1907 Rua formed a non-violent religious community at Maungap\u014Dhatu, the sacred mountain of Ng\u0101i T\u016Bhoe, in the Urewera. By 1900, Maungap\u014Dhatu was one of the few areas that had not been investigated by the Native Land Court. The community, also known as New Jerusalem, included a farming co-operative and a savings bank. Many P\u0101keh\u0101 believed the community was subversive and saw Rua as a disruptive influence. In 1916 police mounted an armed expedition, arriving at Maungap\u014Dhatu on 2 April to arrest Rua for sedition. He was found not guilty on this charge but imprisoned for resisting arrest. Rua was released in April 1918 and returned to Maungap\u014Dhatu, the community was however in decline and by the early 1930s, most people had left to find work elsewhere. Rua moved on to Matahi in the eastern Bay of Plenty and lived there until his death in 1937. In September 2017, the government committed to pardon him as part of a treaty settlement."@en . . . . . . . . . "Ngahiwi Te Rihi"@en . . . "1937-02-20"^^ . .
