The isthmus was settled by Maori around 1350 and was valued for its rich and fertile land. Many
pa (fortified villages)
were created, mainly on the volcanic peaks. Maori population in the area is estimated at about
20,000 people before
the arrival of Europeans. The subsequent introduction of firearms, which began in Northland,
upset the balance of
power and led to devastating inter-tribal warfare, causing iwi who lacked the new weapons to
seek refuge in areas less
exposed to coastal raids. As a result, the region had relatively low numbers of Maori when
European settlement of New
Zealand began. There is, however, nothing to suggest that this was the result of a deliberate
European policy.On 27
January 1832, Joseph Brooks Weller, eldest of the Weller brothers of Otago and Sydney bought
land including the
sites of the modern cities of Auckland and North Shore and part of Rodney District, for "one
large cask of powder"
from "Cohi Rangatira"
After the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in February 1840, the new Governor of New Zealand,
William Hobson
chose the area as his new capital, and named it after George Eden, Earl of Auckland, then
Viceroy of India.The land
that Auckland was established on was given to the Governor by local Maori iwi Ngati Whatua, as
a sign of goodwill and
in the hope that the building of a city would attract commercial and political opportunities for the
iwi. Auckland was
officially declared New Zealand's capital in 1841,and the transfer of the administration from
Russell (now Old Russell)
in the Bay of Islands was completed in 1842. However, even in 1840 Port Nicholson (later
Wellington) was seen as a
better choice for an administrative capital because of its proximity to the South Island and
Wellington became the
capital in 1865. Auckland was the principal city of the Auckland Province until the provincial
system was abolished in
