Ko Tuahiwi te kāinga tuturu o Ngāi Tūāhuriri. Koia nei te wāhi i whakatū te takiwā o Te Ngāi Tūāhuriri Rūnanga, mai i Hurunui, ki te awa o Hakatere, tae noa atu ki Ka-Tiritiri-o-te-moana.

Ki konei he wahi rongonui e pātata ana ki te takiwā o Ngāi Tūahuriri. Ko Kaiapoi Pā te ingoa o taua wāhi rongonui. Nā Tūrākautahi tēnei kaupapa i whakarite, i whakatū, i te hekenga mai ki tēnei te whēnua o Te Wai Pounamu/ Te Waka o Aoraki. Ko ia te tuakana o Moki, me te tama tuarua o Tūāhuriri. Nōnā ngā mahi whakahirahira katoa o tēnei wāhi. Ko ia hoki te take i tapaina tēnei wahi ko Kaiapoi Pā.

Ko tēnei te wāhi matua i whakamahia ngā tīpuna hei tauhokohoko, hei tohatoha i ngā tino taonga i waenganui i te iwi. Nāwai, nāwai ka whakawhanake te iwi i ēnei ahuatanga o Kaiapoi Pā, kia tū hei wāhi rangatira, hei wāhi whakahirahira mo ngā uri katoa o Ngāi Tahu.

In 1898, mainly on the initiative of the missionary James Stack, who was based in the nearby Ngāi Tahu village of Tuahiwi, a monument was erected on the site of Kaiapoi pā. This lay to the north of the present-day town of Kaiapoi. The tall column rises from a bank reconstructed on the pā’s original defences.

The tekoteko at the top of the monument was removed after the February 2011 earthquakes and is on loan to the Canterbury Museum for display in their Quake City exhibition.

The inscription on the monument denoting the location of Kaiapoi pā attests to its status as the principal stronghold of the Ngāi Tahu, signifying its historical significance within the tribe's heritage.
