Kōrero: Te Tiriti o Waitangi – the Treaty of Waitangi

Ki mua

Burning of the Boyd, 1809

Whai muri

Ka whakatōhenehenetia te hokohoko me te tūhonotanga i waenganui i te Māori me ētahi Pākehā e ngā whawhai pērā i te huakitanga ki te kaipuke hērā Boyd i te wā i mua i waitohutanga o te Tiriti o Waitangi. I te wā i haikatia te Boyd ki te Whanga o Whangaroa, ki te Raki o Pēwhairangi, i patua te nuinga o ngā hēramana me ngā pāhihi hei whakaea i te tūkinotanga o tētahi rangatira rangatahi, a Te Ara, i rere mā runga i taua kaipuke. Nā ngā kaihopu wēra Pākeha i whakaea i te huakitanga, nā reira te pakanga i waenganui i ngā iwi i tīmata. Nā te kaupapa o te Boyd i tīmata te taupatupatu a ngā āpiha nō Niu Haute Wēra, a ngā Māori hoki, me pēhea e mau te rongo ki Aotearoa.

Unfortunately you neglected to include that the moari also ate the crew of the Boyd. This is history and should be told as such. Cannibalism was rife at the time throughout New Zealand. Inter tribal slaying and canalbilisim was common place.
