Lake Mangakaware
Lake Mangakaware is a peat lake in the Waikato region, outside Te Awamutu, in the North Island of New Zealand. It is one of 31 in the region. The lake has a depth of 4.8 metres, and an area of 12.9 hectares. The lake has cultural significance due to a number of archaeological finds close to its waters, including a pā site.

Water quality in the lake has declined, with plants in the lake declining significantly between 2005 and 2010. Volunteers have been seeking to fix this through improving the biodiversity of the surrounding area. Planting days have been organised to establish native plants such as mānuka and kahikatea, and stop the spread of invasive species such as gorse.

Pā
The word pā (Māori pronunciation: [ˈpaː]; often spelled pa in English) can refer to any Māori village or defensive settlement, but often refers to hillforts – fortified settlements with palisades and defensive terraces – and also to fortified villages. Pā sites occur mainly in the North Island of New Zealand, north of Lake Taupō. Over 5,000 sites have been located, photographed and examined, although few have been subject to detailed analysis. Variations similar to pā occur throughout central Polynesia, in the islands of Fiji, Tonga and the Marquesas Islands.

In Māori culture, a great pā represented the mana (prestige or power) and strategic ability of an iwi (tribe or tribal confederacy), as personified by a rangatira (chieftain). Māori built pā in various defensible locations around the territory (rohe) of an iwi to protect fertile plantation-sites and food supplies.
