Hinenuitepo was first known as Hinetitama(Dawn Maiden). Her parents were Tane-Mahuta(God of Forests and Birds) and Hineahuone (the Woman created from earth). Tane-Mahuta then married Hinetitama. One day Hinetitama asked Tane-Mahuta if he knew who her father was(she didn't know him because he changed his form),he then told her that he was her father. When hinetitama found this out she was so overwhelmed by the shame, so she then fled to the underworld and became Hinenuitepo(the Goddess of Death).
