I ahu mai ēnei whakairo i te wharenui o Rauru i puritia ki te Whare Taonga o Volkerkunde ki Hamburg, Tiamana. Kei runga hoki ko ngā whakairo e pā ana ki ngā kōrero tuku iho: ko Kurangaituku e whai ana i a Hatupatu, ko te kūtinga o Māui i ngā kūhā o Hinenuitepō, me te hīnga ake o Māui i Te Ika-a-Māui. I hangaia a Rauru i waenganui i ngā tau 1897 me 1900 ki Whakarewarewa ki Rotorua. I mua atu, ehara a Rauru i te mahinga nā te iwi, engari nā te kaipupuri hōtera Pākehā nā Charles Nelson i utu i ngā mahi. Ko ngā tohunga whakairo i te whare ko Tene Waitere rātou ko Ānaha Te Rāhui ko Neke Kapua. Nō te tau 1907 ka riro te whare i te Whare Taonga o Hamburg, ā, ka whakatūria ki reira i te tau 1912. He nui ngā whakapau kaha ki te tapitapi i te whare mō tōna rautau i te tau 2012.
