Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tokoroa is the third largest town in the Waikato region of the North Island of New Zealand and largest settlement in the South Waikato district. Located 30 km southwest of Rotorua, close to the foot of the Mamaku Ranges, it is mid-way between Taupo and Hamilton on State Highway One. Its 2006 census population was 15,063, virtually unchanged from the 1996 figure of 15,096. Other notable South Waikato settlements are Putaruru, Tirau and Arapuni.It is traditionally recorded that one of the great fighting chiefs of the Ngati Kahupungapunga, Tokoroa by name, was slain by Ngati Raukawa during the siege of Pohuturoa, a high rocky eminence 27 km south of Tokoroa on the main Taupo highway. It is probable that some early surveyor applied the name Tokoroa as a tribute to the old chief''s memory. The name ''Tokoroa'' first appeared on the early maps of the 1860s.
