Ko Hōne Heke he rangatira nō Pēwhairangi, nō Ngā Puhi (? -1850). He Karaitiana a Heke, ā, he hoa piritata tonu ki a Te Karuwhā. I te hainatanga o te Tiriti o Waitangi i te tau 1840, koia tētahi i whakapono ki ngā kī taurangi a Te Karuwhā tērā tonu e tiakina te mana o ngā rangatira Māori. Ko ia te tuatahi o ngā rangatira o Te Tai-tokerau ki te haina (ahakoa ko tōna moko te mea tuawhā i te Tiriti ina pānuitia, i te mea i whakaurungia ngā hainatanga o ōna rangatira ki runga ake i tāna).Ko Hōne Heke he reo whai mana, he reo i tautoko i te Tiriti o Waitangi. Ahakoa, ka tahuri ia i muri ki ngā mahi whakahē i te mana whakahaere o Ingarangi ki Aotearoa.
Ko Hōne Heke rāua ko Hariata, tana wahine
Ka pā te pōuri me te mamae ki a Heke i te whā tau i muri mai, nā te mea i te whakangaromia e te Karauna te mana o te iwi Māori. Ka tono a Heke kia topea te pou haki i te kāinga Pākehā o Kororāreka. Ko te take i pērā ai, he āta whakaatu i tō rātou riri ki te mana kāwanatanga o Ingarangi, engari kia kaua e whakatumatuma ki ngā kaiwhakanoho Pākehā. I roto i ngā marama whai muri, e toru atu anō ngā whakatūranga me ngā topenga i te pou. I te tau 1845, i te topenga tuawhā, ka pakanga Te Karauna ki ngā iwi o Te Tai-tokerau.
