The wars were central to this country changing from the Maori land it was for hundreds of years, to one dominated by Europeans. Historian James Belich (1996: 249) refers to ‘swamping’, in which Maori were simply outnumbered by the newcomers. In 1858, two years before the major conflict began, Maori and Pakeha each numbered about 60,000; at the end of the 1860s Maori were one in five of 300,000 New Zealanders; by the end of the century Maori made up only one in twenty of the country’s population. War led directly to the confiscation of large tracts of North Island Maori land and indirectly to the further dispossession of weakened and divided tribes at the hands of the Maori Land Court. To understand the present we must know the past. War was at the heart of a process of expansion and dispossession that has defined our country for 150 years. In today’s renegotiation of the Pakeha-Maori relationship there is no escaping reference to the New Zealand Wars and its results. The primary purpose of the project is the production of a report on the current condition, loss, and threats to historic sites and landscapes of the New Zealand Wars. This will enable the NZHPT, along with other agencies responsible for heritage management (through the Resource Management Act 1991 and other mechanisms) to prioritise and plan for the protection of historic sites and landscapes relating to the wars. The following catalogue lists war sites currently recorded in the New Zealand Archaeological Association (NZAA) Site Recording Scheme. InSitu Heritage Ltd. collated the information on recorded archaeological sites. The NZAA supported this project by providing access to its Upgrade Project Information Management System. Thanks are also due to the New Zealand Lottery Grants Board, Environment and Heritage Committee, for financial support. 2 The regions Fighting in the wars took place throughout much of the North Island and in one instance in the South Island (see Figure 1 for distribution of recorded sites). Major episodes and campaigns may be summarised as follows (after Prickett 2002). Districts involved are added in brackets where not clear from the campaign title. The Wairau Incident 1843 (Marlborough) The Northern War 1845-46 (Bay of Islands) Wellington 1846 Wanganui 1847 2 Figure 1: Recorded NZ Wars sites, by region. 3 First Taranaki War 1860-61 (north Taranaki) Waikato War 1863-64 Tauranga Campaign 1864 Second Taranaki War and after 1863-69 (north Taranaki) Wanganui and South Taranaki 1864-66 The East Coast 1865-66 (Opotiki, Poverty Bay, Hawke’s Bay) Titokowaru’s War 1868-69 (South Taranaki and Wanganui) Te Kooti’s War 1868-72 (Poverty Bay, Hawke’s Bay, Urewera, Whakatane, Taupo) Parihaka Campaign 1880-81 (Taranaki) The above episodes and campaigns indicate the extent of fighting, or, in the case of Parihaka a military campaign without fighting, throughout much of the North Island. In all named districts there is a legacy of historic landscapes and sites which tell the story the wars. This is especially so in Taranaki with 157 recorded sites (31.2% of the total), Waikato (146; 29%), Bay of Plenty (68; 13.5%) and Wanganui (38; 7.6%) which saw the most considerable or significant or prolonged conflict. Other districts with notable sites or groups of sites include the Bay of Islands, Wellington, Poverty Bay and Taupo. Just as there can be no doubt of the significance of the wars in our history, so the related archaeological sites and landscapes are among our most important historic places. Not surprisingly, regions most bitterly contested at the time are among the places people have most wanted to live in then and since. That is why they were fought over. This puts sites of the New Zealand Wars under considerable pressure today from farming, industry, housing, infrastructure and other development. Not all sites can be preserved. Knowledge of what is out there is an essential first step to good conservation decisions. The catalogue assists in this process. 3 The sites The catalogue content is outlined in the attached introductory notes (pp. 11-15). It is important to realise that the 503 sites listed will not be the total of New Zealand War sites and that there will be many others not yet recorded. In early years the site record scheme included only Maori and not European sites, so that there has been a catch-up needed for the latter. Also, a higher proportion of visible sites, Maori and European, will be recorded than sites with sub-surface remains only. Thus most military sites, notably fortifications, are listed, but many – or most – sites related to the wars but not actually military in nature, are not, such as Maori kainga (undefended settlements) and settler homesteads. Site recording has always depended on the experience and interests of recorders, mostly amateur in early years. Sites lacking surface features require careful observation – often with the assistance of historical research in the period of written records, including, of course, the 19th century New Zealand Wars. Written and pictorial historical records are mostly Pakeha in origin and so are more useful for Pakeha than Maori sites. In recent years sites have been recorded from historical information only, bringing in often significant places that might otherwise fall beneath the radar in conservation planning for the lack of 4 identified physical remains. These were generally not recorded in early years of the site recording scheme. Many sites remain unrecorded. All have an important story to tell. Historically significant places which do not yet have a site record include Titokowaru’s two pa at Te Ngutu o te Manu and Moturoa in South Taranaki, as sites without visible remains. Site types such as Pakeha homesteads destroyed during fighting have only recently attracted attention, notably in Taranaki. All will have particular historical information of the people who lived there. They also tell of the broader process in which they played a part. Most recorded New Zealand War sites are fortifications, including 219 European redoubt, stockade and blockhouse sites (43.5% of the catalogue total) and 160 Maori pa and rifle pits (31.8%). There will be more unrecorded Maori sites than Pakeha, if only because there is better contemporary documentation. Some Maori sites of the period can be difficult to distinguish from older pre-European sites. While earthwork sites have a good chance of survival, wooden

  • 10. South Taranaki
    10. South Taranaki Fighting in South Taranaki began when General Cameron’s invasion army marched north from Whanganui on 24 January 1865. This was a major New Zealand campaign, exceeded in the number of Pākehā troops only by the Waikato War a year earlier. A chain of redoubts protected communications, notably on each bank of the Waitotara, Patea, Manawapou and Waingongoro rivers. Pā were mostly inland, at or near the bush edge, and were left alone. The invasion halted at Waingongoro River on the last day of March 1865. British troops then stayed on at the redoubts, while colonial forces took Māori land in return for service, with local fortifications put up for refuge and defence. On 30 December 1865, General Chute marched north from Whanganui on a very different campaign. By the time his combined British Army, colonial and Whanganui Māori force returned on 9 February 1866, seven fortified pā and 21 kāinga had been attacked and taken in search and destroy operations. When British regiments left South Taranaki later that year, colonial troops took over the garrison role. Titokowaru’s 1868–69 campaign was an outstanding strategic episode of the New Zealand Wars. Colonial troops were defeated at Te Ngutu o te Manu and Moturoa and forced back to Whanganui, abandoning Pākehā settlement north of Kai Iwi but for posts at Patea and Wairoa (Waverley). The Māori effort failed early in 1869 when Tauranga Ika, the greatest of Titokowaru’s pā, was given up without a fight. In the years that followed, Pākehā settlers on Māori land were protected by Armed Constabulary and militia posts.

  • Waipa Waters Programme: Project Information Form
    Sensitivity: General Waipa Waters Programme: Project Information Form Section 1: Key Information [Criteria 2 and 3] 1. Project Title: Waipa DC Waters Programme 2. Please provide your details: Organisation Name: Waipa District Council Entity Type: Local Government Contact Name and Role: Dawn Inglis GM Service Delivery Email Address: [email protected] Telephone: 027 554 2221 3. Please provide a very brief description of the infrastructure project: Brief description of the programme Waipa District Council has compiled a programme of projects in the Waters Activity which meet the requirements of the Crown Infrastructure Partners. These projects have been selected also because they are all key enablers for Waipa District Council to continue its journey towards compliance with standards and consents, which are key to achieving community well-being and protecting public health. These projects nominated are not currently funded as part of the current Waipa DC Long Term Plan (2018-2021 period) but were to be submitted for local funding as part of the development of the Waipa DC Long Term Plan (2021-2024). They are able to be accelerated readily to meet the funding criteria. Problem being addressed Whilst Waipa is working hard to address issues in the Waters Activities, many of the projects required to address the issues are currently unaffordable to our communities – either in part or complete projects being deferred. Waipa has a backlog of renewal work required and is also grappling with the level of capital investment needed to cater for increased residential and commercial growth in our communities. Key benefits being delivered Waipa is committed to the vision and strategy of the Waikato River Authority (Te Ture Whaimana o Te Awa o Waikato), which is focussed on restoring and protecting the health and wellbeing of the Waikato (and Waipa) River.

  • KIWI BIBLE HEROES Te Pahi
    KIWI BIBLE HEROES Te Pahi Te Pahi was one of the most powerful chiefs in the Bay of Islands at the turn of the 19th century. His principal pa was on Te Puna, an Island situated between Rangihoua and Moturoa. He had several wives, five sons and three daughters. Having heard great reports of Governor Phillip King on Norfolk Island, Te Pahi set sail in 1805 with his four sons to meet him. The ship’s master treated Te Pahi and his family poorly during the trip and on arrival decided to retain one of his sons as payments for the journey. To make matters worse, Te Pahi discovered that King had now become the Governor of New South Wales and was no longer on Norfolk Island. Captain Piper, who was now the authority on Norfolk Island, used his powers to rescue Te Pahi and his sons and treated them kindly until the arrival of the Buffalo. Te Pahi and his sons continued their journey to Sydney on the Buffalo in their quest to meet King. In Sydney they were taken to King’s residence where they presented him with gifts from New Zealand. During their stay in Sydney, Te Pahi attended the church at Parramatta conducted by Samuel Marsden. Te Pahi had long conversations with Marsden about spiritual Sources: matters and showed particular interest in the Christian http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/1t53/te-pahi accessed May 21, 2014 God.
