Ngāti Hāmua Environmental Education Sheets
NGTI HMUA ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION SHEETS Produced by Rangitne o Wairarapa Inc in conjunction with Greater Wellington 2006 2 NGTI HMUA ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION SHEETS This education resource provides the reader with information about the environment from the perspective of the Ngti Hmua hap of Rangitne o Wairarapa iwi. There are 9 separate sheets with each one focussing on a different aspect of Mori customary belief. The first two sheets look at history relating to Ngti Hmua starting with the creation myth and the Maori gods (Nga Atua). The second sheet (Tupuna) looks at the Ngti Hmua ancestors that have some link to the Wairarapa including Maui – who fished up Aotearoa, Kupe – the first explorer to these shores, Whtonga aboard the Kurahaup waka and his descendants. The remaining sheets describe the values, practices or uses that Ngti Hmua applied to their environment in the Wairarapa valleys, plains, mountains, waterways and coastal areas. The recording of this information was undertaken so that people from all backgrounds can gain an appreciation of the awareness that the kaumtua of Ngti Hmua have of the natural world. Rangitne o Wairarapa and Greater Wellington Regional Council are pleased to present this information to the people of the Wairarapa and beyond. This resource was created as part of the regional council’s iwi project funding which helps iwi to engage in environmental matters.

A DISCURSIVE ANALYSIS OF RANGATIRATANGA IN A MÄORI FISHERIES CONTEXT Anne- Marie Jackson* Abstract Rangatiratanga is a nodal discourse that subsumes a number of smaller discourses. This paper utilises critical discourse analysis to examine the emergent discourses of rangatiratanga within the context of Mäori fi sheries management. Three Tiriti o Waitangi translation texts and six Waitangi Tribunal texts relevant to fi sheries were selected as the texts. The main conclusions are that there are multiple understandings of the discourses of rangatiratanga that allows for certain meanings and not others, and while the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi retain the spirit of the Treaty, the principles in fact limit and restrict the full authority of rangatiratanga that is guaranteed under the Treaty. It remains to be seen whether rangatiratanga that is provided in a Mäori fi sheries context allows for the myriad of understandings discussed in this paper. Keywords rangatiratanga, fi sheries, Tiriti o Waitangi, critical discourse analysis Introduction northern Mäori chiefs, particularly those of the hapü of He Wakaminenga o Nu Tireni Te Tiriti o Waitangi/Treaty of Waitangi is New (the Confederation of the United Tribes of Zealand’s founding constitutional document New Zealand). There are two versions of the (Jackson, 2010). It was signed on 6 February Treaty: Mäori language (Tiriti o Waitangi) and 1840 between the Queen of England’s rep- English language (Treaty of Waitangi), and resentative Captain William Hobson and both versions contain references to fi sheries. * University of Otago, School of Physical Education, Dunedin.

The Public Realm of Central Christchurch Narrative
THE PUBLIC REALM OF CENTRAL CHRISTCHURCH NARRATIVE Written by Debbie Tikao, Landscape Architect and General Manager of the Matapopore Charitable Trust. Kia atawhai ki te iwi – Care for the people Pita Te Hori, Upoko – Ngāi Tūāhuriri Rūnanga, 1861 The Public Realm of Central Christchurch Narrative 1 2 CERA Grand Narratives INTRODUCTION This historical narrative weaves together Ngāi Tahu cultural values, stories and traditional knowledge associated with Ōtautahi (Christchurch) and the highly mobile existence of hapū and whānau groups within the Canterbury area and the wider landscape of Te Waipounamu (South Island). The focus of this historical narrative therefore is on this mobile way of life and the depth of knowledge of the natural environment and natural phenomena that was needed to navigate the length and breadth of the diverse and extreme landscape of Te Waipounamu. The story that will unfold is not one of specific sites or specific areas, but rather a story of passage and the detailed cognitive maps that evolved over time through successive generations, which wove together spiritual, genealogical, historical and physical information that bound people to place and provided knowledge of landscape features, mahinga kai and resting places along the multitude of trails that established the basis for an economy based on trade and kinship. This knowledge system has been referred to in other places as an oral map or a memory map, which are both good descriptions; however, here it is referred to as a cognitive map in an attempt to capture the multiple layers of ordered and integrated information it contains. This historical narrative has been written to guide the design of the public realm of the Christchurch central business area, including the public spaces within the East and South frames. -

Tangihanga: the Ultimate Form of Māori Cultural Expression— Overview of a Research Programme
Tangihanga: The Ultimate Form of Māori Cultural Expression— Overview of a Research Programme Linda Waimarie Nīkora, Ngāhuia Te Awekōtuku, Mohi Rua, Pou Temara, Te Kahautu Maxwell, Enoka Murphy, Karyn McRae and Tess Moeke-Maxwell Tangi Research Programme, The University of Waikato Abstract Death, observed through the process of tangihanga (time set aside to grieve and mourn, rites for the dead) or tangi (to grieve and mourn), is the ultimate form of Māori cultural expression. It is also the topic least studied by Māori or understood by outsiders, even after televised funeral rites of Māori leaders and intrusive media engagements with more humble family crises. It has prevailed as a cultural priority since earliest European contact, despite missionary and colonial impact and interference, and macabre Victorian fascination. Change is speculative rather than confirmed. Tangi and death rituals have yet to be rigorously examined in the Māori oral canon, or in the archival and historic record that may be discarded or reinforced by current practice. As researchers we are committed to studying tangi, conscious of the belief that such work carries the inherent risk of karanga aituā (inviting misfortune or even death itself) by drawing attention to it. Contemporary Aotearoa New Zealand is constantly touched by aspects of tangi practice through popular media and personal exposure. This volatile subject nevertheless demands careful and comprehensive scrutiny in order to extend and enrich the knowledge base, reveal the logic that guides ritual, inform the wider New Zealand community and, more importantly, support the cultural, social, ritual, economic and decision- making processes of bereaved whānau (family, including extended family), people affiliated with marae (communal meeting complex) and iwi (tribe, tribal). -
