The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. i Portrayals of the Moriori People Historical, Ethnographical, Anthropological and Popular sources, c. 1791- 1989 By Read Wheeler A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History, Massey University, 2016 ii Abstract Michael King’s 1989 book, Moriori: A People Rediscovered, still stands as the definitive work on the Moriori, the Native people of the Chatham Islands. King wrote, ‘Nobody in New Zealand – and few elsewhere in the world- has been subjected to group slander as intense and as damaging as that heaped upon the Moriori.’ Since its publication, historians have denigrated earlier works dealing with the Moriori, arguing that the way in which they portrayed Moriori was almost entirely unfavourable. This thesis tests this conclusion. It explores the perspectives of European visitors to the Chatham Islands from 1791 to 1989, when King published Moriori. It does this through an examination of newspapers, Native Land Court minutes, and the writings of missionaries, settlers, and ethnographers. The thesis asks whether or not historians have been selective in their approach to the sources, or if, perhaps, they have ignored the intricacies that may have informed the views of early observers. The thesis argues that during the nineteenth century both Maori and European perspectives influenced the way in which Moriori were portrayed in European narrative.

  • Pioneering History
    New Zealand Journal of History, 36, 1 (2002) Chris Hilliard Pioneering History NEGOTIATING PAKEHA COLLECTIVE MEMORY IN THE LATE NINETEENTH AND EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURIES* IN APRIL 1884 Thomas Hocken stood before a group of nearly 40 men who had gathered to establish the Early History Society of Otago. Hocken was known by his contemporaries as a 'gentleman who had always taken a great interest' in New Zealand's history.1 On this occasion he gave a speech designed to rouse interest in the foundation of Pakeha New Zealand: 'Whatever his nationality, the pioneer delights to record, and his successors to hand down, the minutest incidents of early history'. He hoped that the story of Pakeha origins, symbolized by the arrival of the immigrant ships Tory, Cuba, Wild Watcli, John Wicklijfe, Randolph and Cressy, would become 'as complete and full of interest' as the accounts of Maori or white American origins (with their well-known immigrant vessels the Arawa and Tainui or the Mayflower). He urged his audience to emulate the Historic Society of New York in 'raising from oblivion a thousand interesting details connected with the settlement... which but for such timely efforts must have been irrevocably lost.'2 Another founding member, the Rev. Dr D.M. Stuart, also spoke with a sense of urgency: 'For years he had advocated the formation of such a society'. His friend — old settler Mr Cutten — had recently died, taking much information on early Otago with him. However, J. Hyde Harris outdid both Hocken and Stuart with a remarkably long-standing intention to gather Otago's foundational history.

  • Otago Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.

  • Taiehu Collection Policy 2016
    DUNEDIN PUBLIC LIBRARIES TAIEHU COLLECTION POLICY 2016 SCOPE This policy is concerned with the Taiehu Collection in the City Library. Its principles will also apply to smaller Māori collections held in Community Libraries throughout the Dunedin Public Libraries network. 1. Collection Scope The collection aims to provide resources on a broad range of topics with a Māori focus. It is primarily an adult non-fiction collection with a research focus directed at the interested non-specialist. More specialised materials relating to academic or whakapapa research and government information may be consulted in the Heritage Collections. Where fiction is included in the collection it will be as aids to extending language skills rather than as examples of works by Māori or non-Maori authors. Fiction written by Māori authors in Te Reo Māori and English may be included in the general lending collections as well as the Taiehu collection. 2. Collection Purpose The aim of the collection is twofold: to support southern Māori in mātauranga and to foster a deeper understanding of tikanga Māori or ‘the Māori way of doing things’, within the wider community. As a non-fiction collection, the purpose of the collection is primarily educational rather than recreational. It is expected that the collection will be used by local iwi and interested members of the public, including students and those interested in learning Te Reo Māori. The strength of the Taiehu collection is that it brings together items that would otherwise be widely separated, so that books on Māori arts and crafts, for example, can be found located very close to books on Māori mythology.

This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-85-3 Published November 2009 Otago lakes’ trophic status i Foreword The high quality of Otago’s lakes and waterways has come to be expected by all who live and visit the region. However, areas are coming under pressure from intensive agriculture, urbanisation and water discharge practices. To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long-term water quality monitoring as part of its State of the Environment programme. Short-term monitoring programmes are also carried out in some catchments to provide more detailed information. These programmes assist regional planning and help everyone understand the need to protect water quality. This report provides the results from short-term studies, which monitored the health of five high country lakes (Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka). With this information the ORC and local community can work together to ensure the future wellbeing of these five important lakes. Otago lakes’ trophic status ii Otago lakes’ trophic status Executive summary Otago Regional Council monitored five high country lakes in the Clutha River/Mata-Au catchment between 2006 and 2009. The monitoring of Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka was undertaken in order to detect any small changes in the trophic status of the lakes.
