Hello Dear Guild Goers ,
i'm here to post a thread where we all can chat about random things like why is the sky blue and theres a man on the telephone wire... with his pants on fire..
i'm going to start by saying why do you think Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu exists..?
hmm.. my thought is that its just one of lifes little mysteries x3

Hmm, chances are the people who named it were very, very, very bored. Thats the only logical reason I can think of for giving a hill that freakishly long name. =w=;

xd Haha, I'm only about an hours drive from there! The name actually tells a kind of story from the local Maori tribe of the area. Roughly translated, it's the 'Place where Tamatea (who was a very big, rough man) played his Piccolo for his lover.' Gotta' love the Maori language! xd

Oh man. Yeah, it's definitely a mouthful.
But you shouldn't really trust wikipedia, since anyone can add any type of entry they want to it. If there was another source to prove that name is true, then I would totally believe it. And you say it's Maori?
What is Maori? It sounds so cool.
