  • Aoraki Mt Cook
    Anna Thompson: Aoraki/Mt Cook – cultural icon or tourist “object” The natural areas of New Zealand, particularly national parks, are a key attraction for domestic and international visitors who venture there for a variety of recreation and leisure purposes. This paper discusses the complex cultural values and timeless quality of an iconic landmark - Aoraki/Mt Cook – which is located within the ever-changing Mackenzie Basin. It explores the various human values for the mountain and the surrounding regional landscape which has become iconic in its own right. The landscape has economic, environmental, scientific and social significance with intangible heritage values and connotations of sacred and sublime experiences of place. The paper considers Aoraki/Mt Cook as a ‘wilderness’ region that is also a focal point not only for local inhabitants but also for travellers sightseeing and recreating in the area. The paper also explores how cultural values for the mountain are interpreted to visitors in an attempt to convey a sense of ‘place’. Finally the Mackenzie Basin is discussed as a special ‘in-between’ place – that should be considered significant in its own right and not just as a ‘foreground’ or ‘frame’ for viewing the Southern Alps and Aoraki/Mt Cook itself. The Mackenzie has aesthetic scenic qualities that need careful management of activities such as recent attempts to establish industrialised, dairy factory farming (which does not complement more sustainable economic and social development in the region). Sympathetic projects such as the Nga Haerenga (Ocean to the Alps) cycle way are also under development to encourage activity within the landscape – in conflict with the dairying and other activities that impact negatively on the natural resources of the region.1 Introduction – cultural values for landscape and ‘place’ Aotearoa New Zealand is regarded by many as a ‘young country’ – the last indigenous populated country to be colonised by European cultures.

  • Section 3 – Takata Whenua Values
    January 2013 Section 3 – Takata Whenua Values SECTION 3 - TAKATA WHENUA VALUES1 INTRODUCTION Ngāi Tahu occupies all but the most northern part of Te Waipounamu (the South Island). The entire area of the Waimate District Council lies within the rohe (area) of Ngāi Tahu. Ngāi Tahu is recognised as tangata whenua within their rohe. The iwi is made up of whānau and hapū (family groups) who hold manawhenua (traditional authority) over particular areas. Manawhenua is determined by whakapapa (genealogical ties), and confers traditional customary authority over an area. Once acquired, manawhenua is secured and maintained by ahi kā (continued occupation and resource use). Ngāi Tahu Whānui is the collective of individuals who descend from Waitaha, Ngāti Mamoe and the five primary hapū (sub-tribes) of Ngāi Tahu; namely Kāti Kurī, Ngāti Irakehu, Kāti Huirapa, Ngāi Tūāhuriri and Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki. Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu is the governing tribal council established by the Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu Act 1996. The Ngāi Tahu Takiwā generally covers the majority of Te Waipounamu excluding a relatively small area in the Nelson/Marlborough region. There are 18 Papatipu Rūnanga, who are regional collective bodies that act as the governing councils of the traditional Ngāi Tahu hapū and marae-based communities. There are two Papatipu Rūnanga that lie within the Waimate District Council boundaries; Te Rūnanga o Waihao and Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua. The takiwā of Te Rūnanga o Waihao centres on Wainono, sharing interests with Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua to the Waitaki, and extends inland to Te Ao Mārama and Kā Tiritiri o Te Moana (The Southern Alps).
