Who was Rongomawahine's husband?

Rongomawahine is a significant figure in Māori mythology and history. She is known as the mother of trees and forests, and is associated with the growth and preservation of vegetation. While there are several stories that recount her many deeds and feats, there is no clear consensus on who her husband was. In some versions, she is said to be married to the god of the sea, Tangaroa, while in others she is paired with Tāne, the god of forests and birds. Still, others suggest that she had no husband at all, as she was revered and worshiped as a powerful, independent deity in her own right.
