| Summary: | "MM tαtou, α, mM kα uri a muri ake nei. For us and our children after us. Tαngata Ngαi Tahu, Volume Two remembers and celebrates the rich and diverse lives of the people of Ngαi Tahu. Spanning time, geography and kaupapa, some fifty biographies bring Ngαi Tahu history into the present. The people in the book have contributed to their iwi, hapk and whαnau in myriad ways: here are wαhine toa, rangatira and tohunga, community leaders, activists and scholars, social workers, politicians, fishermen and farmers, sportspeople, adventurers, weavers, performers, and many more. All are descendants of Waitaha, Ngαti Mαmoe and Ngαi Tahu; united by whakapapa, they are Tαngata Ngαi Tahu. Produced by the Ngαi Tahu Archive Team, this second volume builds on the success of Tαngata Ngαi Tahu, Volume One. With a special emphasis on mana wαhine, more than half of the biographies in Volume Two celebrate the stories of Ngαi Tahu women ... illustrated with hundreds of photographs sourced from the Ngαi Tahu archive, external institutions and whαnau collections. Together these images constitute a tribal family album that is a taonga tuku iho. Te Pae KMrako (the Ngαi Tahu Archive Advisory Committee) has guided this publication, which is the second in a series of biographical volumes"--Publisher's website. |
