Taupō-nui-a-Tia
Ko Taupō he tāone ki te taha o Taupō-moana, ko tona wahi tu ko Tapuwaeharuru. Ko Taupo-moana he moana wai māori ki te puku o Te Ika-a-Maui. Koinei te moana wai māori nui o te Pae-tonga o te ao. Ko te tawhito o taua moana, tae noa pea ki te 65,000 tau.
He rua puia a Taupō moana, he tino nui whakaharahara tōna huhū. I pehu pēnei mai i te tau 186AD, ā i kitea ōna pehutanga ki Haina, ki Roma hoki. Engari ko te pehutanga ki Ōruanui (26500 tau kua pahure) te mea nui atu o te ao.
