This photograph, titled "Kowitis Rununga House, Waioneo, Bay of Islands, c. 1870" offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of New Zealand's indigenous Maori people. Taken by Daniel Louis Mundy in the late 19th century, this albumen print captures a group portrait of Maori individuals outside their traditional dwelling.
