About Ma'u Henua
The Ma'u Henua Indigenous Community has managed Rapa Nui National Park since November 23, 2017, following the official transfer of its administration to the Rapa Nui people. The park, created in 1935 and declared a World Heritage Site in 1995, is managed under a 50-year concession agreement, backed by an indigenous consultation in which more than 86% of the Rapa Nui people voted in favor.
Through an indigenous governance model, Ma'u Henua preserves the archaeological sites, regulates visitor access and promotes sustainable tourism from the Rapa Nui worldview, which integrates respect for the land, the sea and the ancestors. Today it brings together 2,500 members and 280 workers, one of the largest indigenous communities in Chile.

Te Tomo Haŋa o Te ‘Ariki
Conmemoración de la llegada del Ariki Hotu Matu’a
Cada 07 de julio, el pueblo Rapa Nui conmemora la llegada del Ariki Hotu Matu’a a la playa de Haŋa Rau, marcando el inicio de nuestra historia y el nacimiento de nuestra cultura.
La ceremonia comienza con un Umu Hatu, acto de bendición ancestral, acompañado de cantos tradicionales, música y danzas que reúnen a niños, jóvenes y adultos en una puesta en escena que honra el sueño de Haumaka y el viaje que dio origen a nuestro pueblo.
Según la tradición oral, tras la visión profética de Haumaka sobre el hundimiento de Hiva, Hotu Matu’a emprendió la travesía guiado por las estrellas hasta llegar a Te Pito o te Kāiŋa, donde floreció la cultura Rapa Nui.
En Haŋa Rau nació Tu’u Maheke, primer rapanui, dando inicio a nuestra historia, identidad y legado ancestral.
Hoy, esta conmemoración reafirma la memoria colectiva, el respeto por nuestros ancestros y el valor de los sitios sagrados que nos dieron origen.
