Whanganui River taonga stolen during colonial siege is a step closer to home


“In 1978, I shifted back to live in Ohakune and I took a stronger interest. I met with some of my cousins in the 1980s – Matiu Mareikura, Mark Cribb, Ruka Broughton and, from time to time, John Tahuparae.
“We went to Wellington to view it and asked if we could have the object returned either to Pipiriki or to the Whanganui museum.”
However, a decision was made to move it to the newly established national museum Te Papa in the 1990s. Despite this, efforts to bring the taonga home continued, Robinson said.
The waka maumaharatanga was originally situated about 300m from the water’s edge at the entranceway to Te Kōanga o Rehua on the western bank of the Whanganui River, opposite the current Pipiriki settlement.

Whanganui Regional Museum's new director is returning to the town she grew up in after gaining extensive experience in museums around New Zealand.
Dr Bronwyn Labrum was born and raised in Whanganui, where she attended Whanganui High School. She has undergraduate and graduate degrees in history from Massey University and received her PhD from Victoria University of Wellington in 2000.
"The Museum's Joint Council has managed a thorough and considered process to make this important appointment and I think we have found an outstanding director in Dr Labrum," Tangaroa said.
