Uwhi

E hoko ana tēnei toa i te uwhi, he mea kawe mai i Whītī ki ngā Mākete i Ōtara. Ko tēnei tonu te momo i mauria mai e ngā tīpuna Māori i Hawaiki. Kāore i te tino mōhiotia ngā tikanga whakatipu i te uwhi i tērā wā, engari hei ngā marama e waru pakari rawa ai tēnei tipu. Ko te āhua ia, kāore i tino matomato tōna tipu.
