Hinematioro (c. 1750–1823) was the acknowledged leader of Te Aitanga-a-Hauiti, a New Zealand Māori iwi (tribe). She identified with the Ngati Porou iwi. In Māori culture she is an ariki tapairu, or first-born in a notable family, and her influence and mana were wider than her tribal leadership.

Her mother was Ngunguru-te-rangi, and her father was Tane-toko-rangi.
