New Zealand History - The Truth

AN UNPALATABLE TRUTH

The sun sets on the First New Zealanders The new ‘revised’ history of New Zealand

We’ve all seen the documentaries and visual imagery is compelling. Whole new generations grow up with a picture of this land as pristine and pure, uninhabited until Polynesian footprints placed upon our shores. Before this belief continues any longer, we owe it to ourselves, and to the original ancestors of this land, to look at the facts. There were people here before the Polynesian migrations. They left behind multiple clues as outlined in the previous two parts of this series. They also left behind their bones – and these tell the most tragic tale of all. Far from pure and peaceful, the land now known as New Zealand was an unimaginable hell, awash in the blood of both
the original peoples and Maori. Formal burials tell us about the First Peoples, but the bones of the ancient peoples can also be found under layers of charcoal, in the old cooking pits.

Up until the 1970s, that early Maori were cannibals was common knowledge, though its extent and the horrifying effects on all the people of this country could not have been imagined. New Zealand’s early history was openly outlined in books available to schools. Suddenly, books were withdrawn, a new ‘revised’ history appeared and the original, pre-Maori inhabitants disappeared from public view. This article allows them to speak again.

Maori have always spoken of a race of fair skinned people who preceded them. They called them "Patu-paiarehe" or Turehu, and some still trace a shared lineage. In 1867, a Ngati Whatua Tohunga (historian) stated that the Ngati Whatua came to New Zealand from the Cook Islands nine generations earlier, making landfall at a place called Hatarau (Little Barrier Island). Arriving there they encountered a race of fair haired people with fair skin and green blue eyes, whom they named PAKEHA . They took the women to breed from -
the males as slaves and food.

There are Maori who speak of babies stolen long ago by a "fairy people" who hid in the bush, only coming out at night – an understandable action of people who were being killed and eaten faster than they could breed. It is also highly possible that children taken were born to their own women captured by Maori. In
savage post-Maori New Zealand, captives were eaten immediately, kept for breeding or enslaved and subsequently killed for food – an unpalatable history to inherit, but a fact, nonetheless.

One of the last surviving sub-tribes of the Patu-paiarehe was called the Ngati Hotu, pockets of whom survived into colonial times. Here’s a description of them from Maori oral history: "Generally speaking, Ngati Hotu were of medium height and of light colouring. In the majority of cases they had reddish hair. They were referred to as urukehu. It is said that during the early stages of their occupation of Taupo they did not practice tattooing as later generations did, and were spoken of as te whanau a Rangi (the children of
heaven) because of their fair skin. There were two distinct types. One had reddish skin, a round face, small eyes and thick protruding eyebrows. The other was the Turehu. They had white hair and blue green eyes. They were fair-skinned, much smaller in stature, with larger and very handsome features." ( Refer: Tuwharetoa, Chpt.7, pg.115, by rev. John Grace). Note:
The cavern dwellings and stone walls of these people can still be seen at Taupo, but are unprotected and under threat from development.

These tall bones and small Turehu bones were found just last month in a cooking pit.

The bones of the first New Zealanders have been found at locations all over the country: A cache of bones was found in the Kaipara District in 2005 when a pig hunter’s dog wandered into a cave. Investigations were handed over to Noel Hilliam, retired Curator of the Dargaville Maritime Museum, and his team of researchers. The skeletons showed that there were, at least, three distinct physical types of pre-Maori interned there, ranging from the very tall people
(around 7 to 8 feet in height - 2.4 metres), to people of normal stature, to the very small pygmy people.

Noel: "The small stature ‘Turehu" were a particularly attractive childlike people with very fine features. We know about them because these small people once populated countries like Ireland and traditional stories relate their occupation of the Pacific range from Tahiti to New Caledonia to New Zealand. A specialist who examined some of the skeletons in the cave likened them to a race of people living in Wales 3000 years ago."

The obvious question is: Why has this discovery, which changes our commonly accepted history, not been made public? It has – an article in the Northern Advocate reported the discovery, including a comment from an Auckland archaeologist, dismissing the antiquity of the bones, which he never viewed. Noel was unable to access facilities to undertake forensic examination of the bones, but by their size and the skull shape alone, they were clearly not Polynesian. Pre-European Maori had a distinct skull, including a ‘rocker’ jaw,not found in Europeans.

Noel: "A number of years ago around one of the stone cairns near the Waipoua forest, an archaeologist excavated down 2.3 metres, going through two different tephra layers. Carbon datings proved there were people living in this country over five thousand years ago. We have come across a number of caves throughout New Zealand where these peoples were laid to rest. We no longer register these sites, to protect them from destruction, as anything pre-Maori is being buried
or destroyed, including their dwellings. In the Waipoua Forest there are hundreds of stone walls, stone dwelling, stone fireplaces and altars - and petroglyhs carved in the stone. A large one that has fallen over had the design of an early ship carved on it.

"This country over the centuries has been visited by many peoples
from many different countries - some we know of are the Greeks, Chinese, French, Portuguese and Spanish. The Chinese have an early world map showing New Zealand on it. In a museum in Naples there is a marble statue of ATLAS with a globe on his shoulders, made by the Greeks and modified by the Romans in 150 AD.
The Greeks by this time had established the world was round and a time frame round the world of 360 units, which much later in time became latitudes of degrees. The globe is of the heavenly night sky over Athens at that time showing the Tropic of Cancer, the equator, the Tropic of Capricorn, the Antarctic Circle – and New Zealand. The Polynesian Maori are at least the fourth lot of people to come here."

The Dargaville burial find is far from unique, just more recent. Eden Mill in the Auckland suburb of Onehunga was built in 1843 to grind grain. For over a decade in the 1860s it was used to grind up the skeletal remains of countless generations of Patu-paiarehe into fertiliser. Many tens of thousands of skeletons were removed from Auckland burial caves for this purpose and sold to the mill. Maori of the time had no concerns about the fate of these "Tangata
Whenua" bones and openly stated to the authorities, ‘Do as you wish [with these bones], for these are not our people’.

Pre-Maori stone pataka.

Ancient burial methods

One 19th century report from the fiord area of the South Island spoke of humans remains in a limestone cave that were so old that a stalactite had partially encased the petrified remains.

Skeletons of the ancient people have been observed, frequently, since the earliest colonial time, in burial caves or in a sitting (trussed position) in sand dunes, with artefacts beside them. The trussed burial is a typical type of pre-Maori burial. Around Kekerengu in the Kaikoura area of the South Island a large number of these have been found, reportedly with a moa egg with each trussed skeleton, a burial method similar to ancient burials in Costa Rica, where round stone balls accompanied the deceased into the afterlife. One such burial was found on Pigeon Mountain near Howick with a pumice ball found with the deceased.

Some bodies found in caves around the Raglan region were encased in Kauri gum, while in both Raglan and the Waima Range there are dry mummified remains in caves. Another ancient custom practiced by the pre-Maori people was to take the bodies to an open air location where the body tissues could eaten by carrion birds, like the black-backed seagull. The remains would stay there for a year or so in
the elements until the relatives returned to gather the bones and stack them neatly into a bundle. These would then be carried to and deposited in a burial cave or rock fissure. Others were placed on a carved wooden tray held by a menacing looking statuette figure the purpose of which was scare anyone who wanted to come and disturb the remains. Several of these were located in the Waima Range around Waimamaku, Hokianga District.

Some burials were in stone hewn coffins, such as a number observed in different locations around the Wanganui River region.

Those found in burial caves often had red hair or other light brown and blond hues. Samples of their braided hair, taken from the Waitakere rock shelters, used to be on display at Auckland War Memorial Museum and were the subject of written commentary by Maori anthropologist, Sir Peter Buck. Our earliest maritime
explorers frequently saw the, red headed, freckle-faced Maori or "waka blondes" and large pockets of them survived well into the 20th century as people who had never mixed their blood with colonial era European settlers. These days, when ancient, pre-colonial European Caucasoid skeletons are located, they are handed over to the local iwi and no scientific investigation is permitted.

An example of this happened in1995 on a Manutahi farm in Taranaki. The remains of 12 skeletons in a formal pre-European burial ground were unearthed by contractors doing earthworks. The bones were removed and reinterred, reluctantly, at Manutahi Marae where elders said they should have been left where they were. Michael Taylor, a private archaeologist from Wanganui, was called in by the NZ Historic Places Trust to assess the discovery. He said the burial site "definitely pre-dates European settlement due to the style of burial, state of the bones and the presence of what may have been woven flax. Something like this is a significant discovery because it is an unrecorded formal burial site. I’ve been in archaeology for over 20 years and this is the first time I have seen anything like this."

Since the find, more evidence has filtered through. This tells us that the bones of each skeleton unearthed were in woven bags, but the material was not flax; The burial site was a formally organised location, totally unknown to the local iwi by their own admission. It’s evident that they had no history of burials at this location and in this unique manner; The final burial had occurred in swamp or bog land and was similar to the bog burials of Britain. No photography or
forensic analysis of the well preserved skeletal remains and accompanying materials to determine their age, ethnicity or physical anthropology was permitted.

Turehu coffins. These skeletons have recognisable European physiology. They were already very old when found in rugged country, far from any European churchyard and with stone hewn coffins.

Ancient people lived and died nearby

South of Port Waikato stretches rugged limestone country – an area full of caves and the last refuge of a peaceful people who were hunted, and literally, eaten to death. These early New Zealanders were not warlike. They were "easy meat" for the cannibals who came to New Zealand in successive Polynesian migrations, and driven into hiding from their homes along the coast and in the Waikato.

This is one of the skulls in the cache of skeletons featured on the recent 60 Minutes’ documentary on Paul Moon’s book "This Horrid Practice." The back of the skull, similar to others there but not shown on TV, shows clear evidence of cannibalism. The back of the skull has been smashed off to extract the brain. Caucasoid European bones were at this site, now buried.

The ancient peoples built an extensive network of underground homes

During the 1800s, the Rev Robert Maunsell compiled a vast dossier of information on a tribe of "Tall Ones" who had lived in the area, but it was destroyed when the old Port Waikato mission station burnt down. Much of his information was gathered by word of mouth from old Maori living in the area at the time but more striking evidence was gathered by the Reverend himself on several trips into burial caves, where there were skeletons of people over 2 metres tall.
Among them, he reported there were several pieces of pottery. Maori did not make pottery.

Twelve years ago these Tall Ones "spoke from the dust" again during earthworks at Waikaretu. Contractors discovered a cave set into a limestone bluff. Inside were skeletons in stone crypts. By the length of the femurs, the bodies were 7-8ft tall (over 2 metres). Anthropologists from Auckland and Waikato universities were called in, then followed a complete shutdown of the site, with a 75 year moratorium placed upon it. Maurice Tyson of Tuakau, a contractor in the area for 50 years, recalls how this upset the men who had discovered the cave and who could not understand why such a valuable archaeological site should be kept secret. Maurice also speaks of seeing a stone village with walls near the mouth of the Waikaretu Stream. Stone from the village was crushed to use for road metal and nothing now remains.

In Franklin a young Maori man with strikingly blue eyes walks, unaware. Above him, embedded in the clay bank, lie tiny human bones - tangled with small fragments of crayfish shell and charcoal. A larger, digit bone lies with it in the partly exposed cooking pit. Are these pathetic remains Maori or pre-Maori European? As more and more bones surface, they are asking us to listen to their stories, to
use the scientific testing now available to prove that long ago, other peoples walked this land. As a nation we need to acknowledge their existence, accept the horrors of New Zealand’s cannibal history which decimated pre-Maori and Maori alike - and so move on.


Authors note

So much information has been presented to us to sift
through to try and make sense of it all. I would like to thank you all for your contributions for in the quest of the truth there is little recognition. It’s a lifelong challenge as history is written only by the victorious. We have kept many of our sources anonymous for as democratic a nation as we are there are organizations/ people who want this information to remain forgotten.

In living with our dead for this past period many emotions have been tossed around, none more than the realization that there are ancestors of our land and their very existence is being hushed up. We are a nation in denial bound and gagged by political correctness. Cannibalism was rife in NZ pre European history. Professor Paul Moon examines this in great detail in his recent book
‘This Horrid Practice’ I refer to page 235 ‘…the lasting impression of Maori cannibalism is that it was a normal part of community life. But exact numbers, or even reliable estimates of victims, and the percentage of communities’ inhabitants that gorged on human flesh, will never be known.’

In the same period that NZ was being colonized and cannibalism being common place in Maori society, the French where guillotining as fast as they could! The Americas were engaged in slavery, the English were still publically ‘hanging, drawing behind a horse and quartering (cut into 4). Don’t forget earlier in history the Spanish inquisition and even more recently who can forget the acts
of genocide by the millions. The point is apart from the obvious that humans are destined to destroy each other, the history of these events has been acknowledged, nations have had to deal with it, accept it and move on. As hard as it is for our nation to ‘swallow’ cannibalism and the existence of pre Maori civilizations, should censorship by political correctness change what was? I say NO. Should we as a nation be ashamed of our past? I say NO. Are there
implications to our current internal race relations because of an ancestral pre-existence prior to the Maori? What does this mean in our current climate of treaty claims? These are all questions that come to the lips of all New Zealanders no matter what ancestral bloodline. However, there are some that walk among us today who carry the pain of our true uncensored heritage. Let our history be known without political bias. The truth is out there.
