Owae Whaitara Marae - 5th Nov
This week on Waka Huia we journey to Taranaki Mountain, Te ?tiawa Iwi to Owae Whai-Tara Marae, a Marae rich in ancient and recent history. We talk about and sing traditional poi with the elders of the Marae to uncover history about the roles of the various rangatira and ancestors like Ngarue, Wiremu Kingi Te Rangitake, Titokowaru, Sir Maui Pomare and many more that lived at Owae Whai-Tara Marae.
