A Separate Authority (He Mana Motuhake), Volume IA Contemporary Retrospect: Getting to Know Ngāi Tūhoe

A Separate Authority (He Mana Motuhake), Volume I: A Contemporary Retrospect: Getting to Know... [In this conclusion to Parts I and II of Volume 1, I describe in personal terms the way in which I and my family got to know, and are still getting to know, Ngāi Tūhoe and especially some hapū of Manawarū, Ōhāua te Rangi and Rūātoki. Photographs of the village of Ōhāua in 1924 by the renowned social anthropologist Raymond Firth prompt my recapitulation of several decades of important marriage alliances between Ngāti Rongo and Te Urewera hapū that dramatically clarify the ancestry and relationships of the Ruatāhuna and Rūātoki whānau that hosted us in the 1970–1980s. Finally, I describe a confrontation we witnessed in Ōhāua in 1983 between these two hapū that appeared to continue those decades earlier that I describe in Part II. Can the promise of a tatau pounamu reconciliation between these two hapū, repeatedly renewed in the ancestral series of marriage alliances between them, be renewed yet again?] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[In this conclusion to Parts I and II of Volume 1, I describe in personal terms the way in which I and my family got to know, and are still getting to know, Ngāi Tūhoe and especially some hapū of Manawarū, Ōhāua te Rangi and Rūātoki. Photographs of the village of Ōhāua in 1924 by the renowned social anthropologist Raymond Firth prompt my recapitulation of several decades of important marriage alliances between Ngāti Rongo and Te Urewera hapū that dramatically clarify the ancestry and relationships of the Ruatāhuna and Rūātoki whānau that hosted us in the 1970–1980s. Finally, I describe a confrontation we witnessed in Ōhāua in 1983 between these two hapū that appeared to continue those decades earlier that I describe in Part II. Can the promise of a tatau pounamu reconciliation between these two hapū, repeatedly renewed in the ancestral series of marriage alliances between them, be renewed yet again?]
