    One Tree Hill
    By Nicolas Jarraud

    In Maori: Maungakiekie
    This is a volcanic peak in Auckland which is a very important memorial place.

    The english name comes from a tree that has been planted in 1640 at the summit. Many others succeeded but they were often cut with axe by people wanting to attract attention to their cause. However in 2000, the last one has been removed as it was almost falling.

    The stone obelisk was completed by 1940 which was also the centennial year of the signing of The Treaty of Waitangi.
