And Did She Cry in Māori?”
“ ... AND DID SHE CRY IN MĀORI?” RECOVERING, REASSEMBLING AND RESTORYING TAINUI ANCESTRESSES IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND Diane Gordon-Burns Tainui Waka—Waikato Iwi A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History The University of Canterbury 2014 Preface Waikato taniwha rau, he piko he taniwha he piko he taniwha Waikato River, the ancestral river of Waikato iwi, imbued with its own mauri and life force through its sheer length and breadth, signifies the strength and power of Tainui people. The above proverb establishes the rights and authority of Tainui iwi to its history and future. Translated as “Waikato of a hundred chiefs, at every bend a chief, at every bend a chief”, it tells of the magnitude of the significant peoples on every bend of its great banks.1 Many of those peoples include Tainui women whose stories of leadership, strength, status and connection with the Waikato River have been diminished or written out of the histories that we currently hold of Tainui. Instead, Tainui men have often been valorised and their roles inflated at the expense of Tainui women, who have been politically, socially, sexually, and economically downplayed. In this study therefore I honour the traditional oral knowledges of a small selection of our tīpuna whaea. I make connections with Tainui born women and those women who married into Tainui. The recognition of traditional oral knowledges is important because without those histories, remembrances and reconnections of our pasts, the strengths and identities which are Tainui women will be lost. Stereotypical male narrative has enforced a female passivity where women’s strengths and importance have become lesser known. -

Auckland Region
© Lonely Planet Publications 96 lonelyplanet.com 97 AUCKLAND REGION Auckland Region AUCKLAND REGION Paris may be the city of love, but Auckland is the city of many lovers, according to its Maori name, Tamaki Makaurau. In fact, her lovers so desired this beautiful place that they fought over her for centuries. It’s hard to imagine a more geographically blessed city. Its two magnificent harbours frame a narrow isthmus punctuated by volcanic cones and surrounded by fertile farmland. From any of its numerous vantage points you’ll be astounded at how close the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean come to kissing and forming a new island. As a result, water’s never far away – whether it’s the ruggedly beautiful west-coast surf beaches or the glistening Hauraki Gulf with its myriad islands. The 135,000 pleasure crafts filling Auckland’s marinas have lent the city its most durable nickname: the ‘City of Sails’. Within an hour’s drive from the high-rise heart of the city are dense tracts of rainforest, thermal springs, deserted beaches, wineries and wildlife reserves. Yet big-city comforts have spread to all corners of the Auckland Region: a decent coffee or chardonnay is usually close at hand. Yet the rest of the country loves to hate it, tut-tutting about its traffic snarls and the supposed self-obsession of the quarter of the country’s population that call it home. With its many riches, Auckland can justifiably respond to its detractors, ‘Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful’. HIGHLIGHTS Going with the flows, exploring Auckland’s fascinating volcanic -

One Maori leg- end tells of Maui [mao-ee], an adventurous and resourceful demigod who pulled up the North Island of New Zealand from the bottom of the ocean with his fishing pole. Maui’s canoe became the South Island and his anchor became Stewart Island. Although these legends about Maui are fictional, they embody the true nature of New Zealanders, who are adventurous, resourceful, and sea-loving. Starting Points 1. Look at the map of New Zealand. Do the islands that make up New Zealand look like anything more than islands to you? How would you creatively explain how New Zealand’s island chain was created? One storyteller thought these islands resembled a fish, a canoe, and an anchor. 2. How does the geography of the United States influence its culture? How does the geography of the United States affect the culture of its different regions? New Zealand’s geography impacts its culture. The impact of geography is illus- trated in the Maori legends about Maui. 3. Maori legends, to some, might only be interesting fictional stories; however, when studied closely, we see that the legends depict the adventurous and resourceful nature of the people. -
Hauraki Gulf Islands
SECTION 32 REPORT REVIEW OF INDIGENOUS VEGETATION CLEARANCE CONTROLS – HAURAKI GULF ISLANDS 1.0 Background 1.1 Introduction In 1999, the Council commissioned Hill Young Cooper Limited to undertake a review of the indigenous vegetation clearance, earthworks, and lot coverage controls applying in the Hauraki Gulf Islands Section of the Council’s District Plan (‘the Plan’). The Plan has been operative since June 1996 and this work was commissioned as part of a progressive review. Hill Young Cooper was asked to focus on whether the practical application of the rules actually achieved the stated outcomes. In its report1, Hill Young Cooper suggested several changes to the existing indigenous vegetation clearance controls. In particular, it recommended to reduce or increase the amount of vegetation clearance permitted for differing land units to ensure the controls were more consistent with stated objectives and policies. The consent thresholds could then be better linked to the adverse environmental effects of indigenous vegetation clearance i.e. erosion, loss of natural habitats and ecology etc. Building on the conclusions of the Hill Young Cooper report, the Council prepared a draft Plan Change in October 2001, however, it did not proceed to the Planning and Regulatory Committee as it did not satisfactorily address the findings of the Auditor General’s report2. The Auditor General’s report found that the indigenous vegetation clearance rules were causing difficulty as they are generally more restrictive than that of previous plans. Therefore, particular sectors of the community, particularly farmers, felt disadvantaged due to the strict permitted clearance controls and the relative cost of obtaining a resource consent. -
