Pembantaian Boyd


Peledakan Boyd karya Louis John Steele, 1889

Pembantaian Boyd terjadi pada Desember 1809 saat para penduduk Māori dari Pelabuhan Whangaroa di utara Selandia Baru membunuh dan menyantap antara 66 dan 70 orang Eropa.[1] Jumlah tersebut dikabarkan merupakan jumlah orang Eropa tertinggi yang dibunuh oleh Māori dalam sebuah peristiwa tunggal di Selandia Baru, dan insiden tersebut juga merupakan salah satu contoh paling berdarah dari kanibalisme yang tercatat.
