Kiingi Tuheitia Pootatau Te Wherowhero VII laid to rest in New Zealand .

His youngest child and only daughter named as the new Mori monarch.

Kuini Nga Wai Hono Hono i te Po was raised up in a ceremony known as te Whakawahinga .

She is the second woman to be named monarch and the second youngest person to hold the position in the 160-year history of the Mori royal movement.

Kiingitanga was not a conquering monarchy, the king's tribe Waikato didn't conquer other tribes of Moridom in pursuit of the kingship, it was a request from the other tribes.

Five days of funeral rites involve "a lot of singing and waiata (traditional songs to mark an important event)" New Zealand Green MP Kahurangi Carter was full of praise for the new Mori queen.
