A feather of the kivi kivi (Apteryx Australis) is fastened at the extremity. The lines are of flax and, as these hooks dangle astern of the canoes, the glittering appearance of the pawa attracts the fish. 5. Kupenga, or eel trap, formed of twigs, from Mokau. 6. Ko, a wooden spade, for rooting up ferns, and preparing the ground for plantations. 7. A pestle for beating flax, formed of volcanic trap. 8. Wooden flute, one of the orifices of which is tattooed to resemble the lips of a woman. 9.

By: Giles, John West, 1801-1870

Reference: PUBL-0014-25

Description: Shows a Maori whare with raupo-thatched roof, kowhaiwhai beams in the porch, woven tukutuku panels, and carved central pole. There are also decorative poles at either side of the porch and down the exterior side. The lintels are also carved. Otawhao Pa is in the Waipa area, Waikato. The commentary in "New Zealanders illustrated" says: The two principal figures, with protruding tongues, that are placed on each side of the verandah entrance, are intended to represent Hikarea, a chief of Tauranga, killed at Te Tumu, when three hundred of the enemy fell; and Tarea, another chief, and a friend of Puatia, who was killed at Tauranga. The lower figure supporting the centre pole, is Taipari, a chief of Tauranga, and now a convert to Christianity; he was one of the principal warriors at the taking of Maketu. The two carved spaces further up the pole, are also designed to represent warriors; the upper one is for Tara, who was slain at Taranaki. The figure ornamenting the centre of the gable, represents Puke, killed at Rotorua, and the one surmounting the top, Wakatau, who fell at Maketu. Pokana, the present chief of Mata Mata, then so actively engaged in the Maketu war, has his image under the rafters, inside the verandah, looking down from the ridge pole, with a pipe in his mouth". Angas visited New Zealand in 1844 Quantity: 1 colour art print(s). Physical Description: Tinted lithograph, hand-coloured 284 x 338 mm.
