From Wiki, it says...
The name on the sign that marks the hill is "Taumata!whakatangihanga!koauau!o!tamatea!turi!pukakapiki!maunga!horo!nuku!pokai!whenua!kitanatahu", which translates roughly as "The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one".:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0 -
