Puketāpapa

Puketāpapa, also known as Pukewīwī and Mount Roskill, is a volcanic peak and Tūpuna Maunga (ancestral mountain) in Auckland, New Zealand. It is located in the suburb that shares its English name, Mount Roskill.

==Description== The mountain formed as a result of volcanic activity approximately 20,000 years ago. The scoria cone was built by fire-fountaining from two craters. Its peak, located in present-day Winstone Park ( donated by George Winstone in 1925, when 1,600 sections were created around it) towards the southwest end of the suburb. It is one of the many extinct cones that dot the isthmus of Auckland, all part of the Auckland volcanic field. Lava flowed from the base of the cone to the north and to the northwest.
