He mahere o ngā heke i Te Moananui-a-Kiwa

Ki mua

Whai muri

Nō Poronihia ngā tāngata tuatahi ka tae ki Aotearoa. I wehe mai rātou i te pokapū o Te Moananui-a-Kiwa mā runga waka i waenganui i ngā tau 1200 me 1300 AD. E 2000 tau, 3000 tau rānei i mua i tēnei, kua oti kē e ngā tīpuna o te Māori, arā, te iwi Lapita te noho ki ngā moutere pāmamao o Te Moananui-a-Kiwa mai i tō rātou kāinga tūturu i te tonga mā-rāwhiti o Āhia. E tohua ana te roanga atu o tā rātou heke ki te mahere nei. 1450

I was born in Dunedin and left as a child in 1952. At school, we were taught and subsequent studies on the movement of mankind tend to verify it, that NZ was first occupied by the Morori's Then around 1200AD the Māori's arrived and in time replaced the original inhabitants, who were as I understand it related to the Aboriginal peoples of Australia [ in particular Tasmania] and the Southern tip of South America all of who came from the same area of the once single continent. These finding are substantiated in part by the large birds [ Madagascar, Africa last sited around 100AD, Gondwanaland Australia, Moa LAST SITED AROUND 1800 New Zealand, and the Rhea [South America] who in turn had replaced the great catastrophe big bird fossils found around the world. together with flora connections to South America [ again Tasmania]. The other point never discussed is the architecture of the Māori and defensive built establishments including their food storage facilities which was far greater and advanced than any Polynesian, African or Australia which suggests that they migrated from Central America [ as I was taught at school, rather than Asia - though there was a migration of peoples, different to the Māori to Australia from India/Asia about 4000 following the great catastrophe as recorded in the records of the Chinese, Mayan, Middle Eastern and some 154 other societies]
