Descendants of three Southern tribes still live in the Riverton area -Waitahi, Ngati Mamoe and Ngai Tahu and the area is known by the Maori name - Aparima. Riverton was established as a whaling station in 1873. Riverton is one of the earliest sites of European settlement and the cemetery has many historically important settlers interred here. |
