Pākehā is a Māori language term for New Zealanders who are "of European descent". Recently, the word has been used to refer inclusively either to fair-skinned persons or any non-Māori New Zealander. Papa'a has a similar meaning in Cook Islands Māori.Its etymology is unclear, but the term was in use by the late 18th century, and in December 1814, the Māori children at Rangihoua in the Bay Of Islands were "no less eager to see the packaha than the grown folks".
