1879 Major meetings on the treaty
A resurgence of big Treaty meetings, at Kohimārama (Orakei) in 1879 and Te Tii, Waitangi in 1881 and at various centres on the east and west coasts, brought the Treaty back into prominence. Over 3000 people attended the Te Tii meeting, at which a monument to the Treaty was dedicated at Te Tii Marae and demands for a Māori parliament were put to the government.
