EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the legendary departure of the Maori ancestors from their homeland in Hawaiki, as they embarked on an epic ocean voyage to discover and settle the shores of New Zealand. The Maori people, known for their rich cultural heritage and strong connection to the land and sea, have a deeply rooted mythology surrounding their arrival in Aotearoa, the Maori name for New Zealand. According to Maori legend, their god, Tangaroa, sent the demigod Maui on a mission to slow down the sun, allowing his people more daylight hours to fish and farm. During this journey, Maui and his brothers discovered the North Island of New Zealand. Upon returning to their people, they shared the news of this new land, and the decision was made to leave Hawaiki and set sail for Aotearoa. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the time of the Maori ancestors and their momentous journey. The image shows a group of Maori people, dressed in traditional garments, gathered at the water's edge, preparing to embark on their canoes. The sky is filled with ominous clouds, hinting at the challenges that lay ahead. The image not only represents the historical significance of the Maori people's arrival in New Zealand but also the courage, determination, and resilience of their ancestors. The Maori people's connection to their history and their homeland remains strong, and their traditions continue to be celebrated and passed down through generations. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of their rich cultural heritage and the incredible journey that brought them to the shores of Aotearoa.
