===Spiritual places and burial sites=== In November 1996, various members of Te Roroa filed a claim with the Waitangi Tribunal concerning the Maunganui block, the Waipoua Forest, Lake Taharoa and surroundings, and the Waimamaku Valley in Northland. A part of the Wai 38 claim related to ''taonga'', in particular: wahi tapu "spiritual places of special significance to tangata whenua", and wakatupapaku (burial chests deposited in ana (caves and crevices)). The Tribunal report delivered on 3 April 1992 found that the Crown had allowed Te Roroa's ''taonga'' to be violated.<ref name="Wai38">{{cite web|title= The Te Roroa Report 1992 (Wai 38) Chapter 6, Taonga (Sacred Treasures)| publisher= Waitangi Tribunal|year = 1992|url= http://www.waitangi-tribunal.govt.nz/scripts/reports/reports/38/F731EC47-BB76-4D0D-8D41-A4F7A709E763.pdf| accessdate=3 Oct 2011}}</ref>
