It fired many people, whose interest in the origins of the Polynesians had previously been only desultory, to make their own studies in an attempt to 'shed more light on this fascinating problem. In NPR. Zealand. in particular, there has been a great upsurge in interest, so mush so that, comparison with the pre-war period, the rebels field of research seems to be in quite a ferment. Just lately there has been much discussion during the Nellie Sefence Congress in Honolulu. Mr Heyerdahl said there that the "general assumption" that he believed that the Polynesians came from Sonth America was not correct, end that that crossing was only the last stage on a long, long journey which took those people almost right around the Pacific Ocean. He said he accepted the theory of an Indonesian origin behind the Polynesian race, and contended that the ancestors of the Manris followed the ocean cure is at each stage, includ inn e last. Roger Duff, of the Canter-lee Museum, and a leader in tl t field. has been making s dies of his own and is report- to have found a similarity etween ancient stone adzes unarthed in the Philippines. Formosa. South China and Eastern Polynesia. Mr Heyerdahl hes prepared that the search be widened, to include North-West America, in the belief that the Polynesians touched on those shores during their migration. Just recently several Japanese scientists have been in this country, in the course of LSouth-Esat Asian tour, to studyencl. Maori Ault. in an attempt to determine whether there is a link between those unearthed here a a d others found elsewhere in this great ocean basin. In both the North and loath Islands archaeological excavations have brought to light material which, when carbon-dated, has shown that the Maoris lived in this country Re eerly as 1000 , but pieces of wood, found during deep excavations in Wellington for a big office building, are believed to be 1500 yeses aid, and a preliminary observation indicates that the ends of one or two of them 'ere sawn deep through. That last discovery, if the initial aumptions are found to be justified, could be one of the most important yet, because it would mean that this country was inhabited thousands of years before anyone previously believed it seas ? or had any reason to assume. Certainly none of the tales and legends of the Maori, handed down from generation to generation. gave any reason to believe that their ancestors reached these shores before about 900 ?the estimated date of Kupe's arrival. Now it appears that the whole question has been thrown wide open again and this should he a further spur to those people and group whose interest has already been gained. While only few of these students will be able to travel around the shores of the Pacific to further their researches they should be encouraged by the knowledge that what appears to be the most important Polynesian discovery in years was made in Nee. Zealand; and not only that, but in the heart of the oapital city. Dr Duff and Mr Heyerdahl and ?there may be ableto range wider, but there is clearly plenty of orb to be done here which auld be both interesting ant port- ant. </pre>

One came from Dr. Roger Duff, director of the Canterbury Museum, who is in Honolulu studying Polynesian Rei0M. He has noted a clear similarity between certain adzes which belong to the Eastern Pacific and others which are common in South-East Asia. He suggests that this is additional- evIdenee in favour of the commonly accepted theory that the Maoris came originally fmn some earl of South-East Asia, possibly as far distant' no India. Prom here they migrated, probably through the blonds of the Central Pacific, to Hawaiiki before ultimately , moving on to New Zealand. The second statement came from Dr. Thor Hcyerdahl, of Kontiki fame. He too accepts the view that the Polynesians were of Asiatic origin, but suggests that their route was by way of the China coast and Japan. and thence eross to the American continent,' Prom there they grades- ally moved smith to Peru, and then made use of balsa rafts to carry them to the Central Pacific. It is a fascinating theory, less probable than the orthodox one, but not beyond the bounds of possibility. In these matters historians are working almost entirely In the dark, for Maori legends tell us little of predlawaiiki days, and almost the only evidence comes from ethnologists and archaeologists. We will probably never arrive at the ultimate truth, but each year the body of knowledge grows. I n ia work that deserves the fattest encouragement, for few exercises so stimulate the imagination as the effort to pierce the veil that history throws over her beginnings. </pre>

But a friend of the writer's has accumulated a vast amount of valuable information bearing on the question from the Indian standpoint, which information it is hoped, shortly be published." Percy Smith's Ilawaiki was published over fifty years ago, and so far as I am aware the friend referred to did not publish the material mentioned by him. In the meantime, though Percy Smith described his theory as weak, New Zealand authors have generally accepted the supposition that "the Polynesians originated in India ".' Both Elsdon Best and Te Rangihiroa (Sir Peter Buck) accepted the theory, and the latter developed his geographical Polynesian triangle' from the migration traditions as interpret.' by Percy Smith and placed its apex on Easter Island (or Rapanui), its northern angle on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Kahoolawe, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau, and its third and southern angle on New Zealand (or Aotearoa). The triangle, therefore, had its base centred on the important island groups of Samoa and Tonga, and this base included the atoll group of Tokelau and the atoll of Pukaplika, lying to the nonh and north-east of Samoa. These islands served as the western facade of Polynesia. Te Rangihiroa in his Vikings of the Sitarist rejected the southern Melanesian migration route became, as he observes: " In general the Polynesians are physically very different from the Melanesians. Had they stopped a: Melanesian islands to refit their ships and gather new supplies it is probable that racial intermixture would have taken place." He went on to say: " Much of the linguistic evidence formerly cited in support of an original west to east migration of Polynesians through Melanesia has recently been proved to indicate a movement Irons Polynesia wmtward to the marginal islands of Melanesia." Finally, Te Rangihiroa propounded the theory that the northern route, which was the only other possible west to east island-studded route into the Pacific, was die route followed by our Polynmian ancestors. This route leads "through Yap, Palau, and the Caroline Islands; then it branches, one line leading north-east through the Marshall Islands towards Hawaii, and one going south-east through the Gilbert and Phoenix Islands to enter Polynesia north of Samoa.'"s As a note of reminiscence of that great man- -a lovable character in every way I should like to recall at this stage an early incident in cry youth. Te Rangihiroa was discussing Hawaiki with a group of young people, and I lead the temerity to object to one of the propositions then propounded that our ancestors had been, it were, pushed from "pillar to post" by the pressure of population in Java and other islands leading easterly to Melanesia and onwards into what is now Polynesia. 1 Percy Smith, lotto., 1910, p. 85. 2 P.

Science Congress, 1960 I argued that we were better fighters than any of the races that inhabited the islands along that route. To Rangihiroa only smiled. Tr: ildroa summed up the argument against the 'Melanesian migration route and M favour of that through Micronesia or the northern route by saying: " Strong support in favour of the Micronesian route lies M the positive evidence against the route through Melanesia."' He also quoted E. W. Gifford, who analysed the mythology of Tonga and found "that twenty-seven elemrnts were shared with Micronesia and ten with Melanesia, some of which may be due to recent contact with Eiji."5 We were not told what these twenty-seven dente. were. TirEORP or AMERICAN ORIGIN Although various writers have put forward somewhat tentative ideas of America being the homeland, or Hawaiki, of the Polynesians, the credit for this forthright claim must go to Thor Heyerdahl. In his American Indians in the Pacific (1952) he has, in my opinion, put forward a very strong case, if not a conclusive one in favour of America being the principal stepping stone in the mootes of the race from "somewhere itt Eastern Asia, northwards by way of North-Eastern Siberia anti North-Western America into the New World." Heyerdahl, under various chapter headings, has covered practically all the arguments d theories that have been put forward by a host of writers over the pears. A complete list of the chapter headings in his book of over 800 pages will indicate the wide coverage of his painstaking research work. It is a wonder to me that no one has attempted to make a critical examination of his work in order to discredit the theory he has so confidently and clearly put forward. I say this because there has not been a dearth of critics who have simply dismissed his conclusions without any sound arguments to justify their objections to his theory of an American origin for the Polynesian peoples. I myself had an initial objection; a poor onc really, as it concerned the title he gave to his book, "American Indians in the Pacific". To my mind the first title he thought of- -namely, "The American Origins of the Polynesi.,"7 would have been a better title. However, I suppose the American book market dictated the choice of a name for the book. Recalling my youthful argument with our kindly elder Te thiroa, I was pleased to note that Ileyerdahl?in dealing with the migration route through Melanesia and as an argument against the theory that " the population pressure caused by the Malay invasion of Indonesia may have started the ancestors of the Polynesian peoples on their search for new homelands in the Pacific "s--wrote; Arc we to suppose that the courageous Polynesian warriors abandoned all their own seinets and made oft upon the arrival of small Malay people from the Asiatic mainland? If so the character of all Maori-Polynesians mutt have changed greatly since then. They did Mt Ebb New "Zealand when the Englishmen arrived. We may Very Veen stoops the possibility diet a big enough boatload of Malays may have driven Maori-Polynuians away from a settlement, a valley, or even a small island, but not that they cleared the whole Indonesian archipelago of tall and warlike Polynesians. It is unbelievable that every tribe throughout Indonesia should have tied insearch of new homes in an unknown ocem upon the arrival of the lint Malays; on the other hand. if the hypothetical Polynesian ancestors had not settled all the islands, there would have been no population pressure. Allowing that mine exposed groups of Polynesians from orne of the marginal islands may have deserted the fertile Indonesian archipelago in favour of the barren atolls of Micronesia, we must still wonder why there are no vestigu of the other and remaining Polynuian occupants Ibid., p. 45.

In Part 3 of his book Ileyerdahl explains that: The travelling distance between lined points M the Pacific waterspace is not told by a glance at e man As an example we mention that the Ken-Tiki raft, after 'sloughing through less than three thousand miles of sinfine water from the coast of Peso, had reached the Tuamotu Islands, which are more than four thousand miles away. An engine-driven craft. going in the contrary direction, against the trade wind but at the mine speed as Kon-Tiki's average drift, would have to movingmilescover between five and six thousand miles moving surface water to reach NIL from the same Tuamotu Islands. He goes on to say: As no sailing craft ran maintain as high a speed against the wind as before it, we find that there is for primitive craft, in actual travelling toilet, at least twice as far to sail from Polynesia to Peru as front Peru to Polynesia. The Kon-Tiki took 101 days to drift from Callao, in Peru, to Raroia Reef, which is south of the :Marquesas. So that Te Rangihiroa's hypothetical faunasa voyagers, if they were able to maintain the same average speed as the Kon-Tiki's drift, would thaw taken about seven months of hard paddling across empty teas to reach Peru. As he had dismissed the probability of a voyage from Easter Island "because any voyager who had come over a thousand miles from the nearest land in eastern Polynesia would have settled there and not gone on,". I should opine that the voyagers from the :Marquesas would, similarly, have abandoned the idea of returning after landing in Peru. To Rangihiroa concludes his story in his own inimitable style in these words: Contact was too short to make any Ia.:, exchange in religious sr social ideas. The unknown Polynesian voyager who brought back the sweet potato from South America, made the greatest individual contribution to the records of the Polynesians. Ile completed the series of voyages acrou the widest part of the great Pacific Ocean between Asia and South America. Tradition is strangely silent. We know not hit name or the name of his ship, but the unknown hero ranks among the greatest of the Polynesian navigators, for he it was who completed the great adventre. Te Rangihiroa died before. publication of Heyerdahl's book American Indians in the Pacific. Although he was critical of the theory behind the Kon-Tiki expedition, I think that if he had lived to see this later book by Heyerdahl he would have modified his views about the problem of the introduction of the kumara into Polynesia. So much fresh material has been published on Polynesia and its peoples since Te Rangildroa wrote his Vikings of the Sunrise that at the present time a good deal of that most delightful and readable book requires to be rewritten. The general pattern as I see it is that the theory of a west to east migration route is no longer tenable. Te Rangihiroa himself laud rejected the Melanesian route, and his own theory of an alternative migration route easterly through Micronesia was dealt with by Murdock and Shapiro at the Pacific Science Congress which was held in New Zealand in 1949, and in the two papers presented by these men- -"Cultural sub-areas in Micronesia" and " Physical anthropology of Micronesia "?there seas an absence of any indication of a Polynesian passage through Micronesia. Heyerclahl 'writes: The discussions that followed the presentation of these papers AIWA' that all Polynesian influence in Micronesia was due to colonists from Samoa and Tonga, a movement in Me opposite direction from what it should have been had the Polynesians come from the west.

I should imagine that it wax with some reluctance and a note of sadness that Te Rangihircu concluded by saying, "it now scans that these Polynesian groups may be a backward movement which started from Samoa and Tonga and lost impetus after a certain distance." My own mind on the complex problem of migration routes and the settlement of Polynesia is briefly set out in an arttcle contributed to the Polynesian Journal (1957, Vol. 66/1). Apropos of the remark made by Te Rartgihiroa that Poly- nesian influence in Micronesia had "lost impetus after a certain distance," although not directed at To Rangiltiroa's observation, I had this to say: One thing we should re-exanune is this matter of the dispersal point of the peoples of the Pacific. The p,cture as I see it is of a westerly migration stream arrested at i4 centre by the eastern island groups of Melanesia and then, during succeeffing generations, branches flowing around a hardening core of increasing population, firstly M Tonga, Samoa, then Tahiti. Like the delta mouth ot a river the wtrious side branches would flow outwards and on either side of the main stream from a progressively higher point top-stream of the sluggish waters ahead. My impression is that the puzzling features in the cultural affinities between the various island groups would be better captained by the theory indicated above. Earlier in the article I had made certain observations and wrote: At page 115 of Andrew Sharp's book Ancient Voyages in the Peri), he has made a reference to an Easter Island study by an ethnologist who considered that the culture showed analogies with New 7naland, the Tuamotu, Martgaieva, the Marque., and Hawaii. Evidence on similar lines as indicated by the distribution of certain mice types as described by Dr. Roger Duff in his book The Afoo-hunter Period of Afaori Culture (page 43 and sketch map, fig. 32). To my mind this evidence indicates a dispersal point for the outlying islands (Hawaii and New 7Aaland) as being well to the east of the Tahiti Croup. The dialects as spoken on these islands also have many points of similarity, and in my opinion all then analogical aspects are significant pointers to the migration rood followed by the peoples of the Pacific as being ina south-westerly direction from or by way of the Tuamotu Archipelago, especially the Tannin 're Arawa, Matatua and Tokomaru jieoples. The Adea people, on the other hand, in speech and traditional lore have stronger links with the Tahitian group than the other peoples mentioned. I shall nosy direct attention to various cultural affinities and analogical aspects in relation to the peoples of Polynesia and those of Peru. These notes have been gleaned from a very interesting book by J. Alden Mason, The Ancient Civilizations of Peru (1957). The comparisons and the general explanations of various cultural aspects concerning the conformity of Polynesian traits with those of the Peruvians are entirely mine. The author of the book makes only a passing and brief mention of the Polynesians. One note he makes might now he quoted, as follows: The physical type of the Polynesian, their language, and the fundamentals of their culture connect them with south-eastern Asia rather than with America, and there is little doubt that they originally can't born the Malayan region at no very remote period. In fact, they stilt retain very detailed legends of their migration, at least of the later ones. The recent drift of a raft from Callao, Perth to the Polynesian Tuamotu Islands proved that such a voyage was feasible for unpowered craft, though not Heyerdahrs belief that the is/ands were populated in this manner. Throughout his book the author appears to have been quite oblivious of the fact that the various customs, triode of dress, and cultural aspects of the peoples of Peru as noted by him snore in any way analog?us to the peoples of Polynesia.

In the present state of knowledge I am unable to deal adequately with the theory of a migration mute from British Columbia and Vancouver Island. Thor Heyerdahl has dealt with this mitt., but I 'wave not been able to obtain sufficient additional material to justify a proper d critical examination of the evidence he has recorded. I can only briefly mention that the type of canoe of the Indians of that era, as illustrated in Heyerdahl's book, is very similar to those of the Maori which Wo have on display in our museums. I have also read that, like the Maori, the Indians on the Pacific Coast of North America attach the greatest of importance to the possession of an ornamental cloak as a covering for the dead. Before proceeding further with my discussion, perhaps I should point out that Mason was not altogether correct in the statement that Polynesian physical types and "the fundamentals of their culture connect them with south-eastern Asia at no very remote period ". 'Phis has been the subject of much research work and his statement can be shown to be wrong. I shall now examine Mason's book and the analogical aspects I have alluded to: Namas. Like the Polynesians, there were no surnames in ancient Peru (p. 140). A child was given any name that appealed to the parents, generally descriptive of some quality, or referring to birds, fishes, places, or other natural phenomena. A person bore several different names in various stages of his life. Itceent. In ancient Peru incest restrictions were not so great as among peoples of the Old World. There were few for men of top rank; the last several Inca emperors married their full sisters, and nobles Were allowed to marry their half-sisters. Among the comtnoners marriage was permitted with a first cousin, but prohibit.' for closer relationships (p. 151). Among the Maori people the aristocracy generally married first cowl. There were cases of marriages between uncles and nieces and mine withgrand nieces. In the Tainui tribal genealogical descent from the gods there were marriages between brothers and sisters; commencing with the creation by Io, the supreme being, of the World of Stars (To WItetu) who married his sister Floating-Moons (Tau-ana-te-mamma), and down twenty-one "cosmological" generations--as the Tainui priesthood h. it?to "the Great Sky that stands above" and "The Earth that lies beneath". From that point in the priestly genealogy we have thirty-two "evolutionary" generations; and then fifteen generations of the "mythical to the ancestral which brings us to the time of the Great Migration to New 7,ealand about 1350.

The list of forty-four place names given by Heyerdahlu as a sample of a diffusion of geographical names from the mountain plateau of Lake Titicaca, in Peru, into Polynesia 1 shall later in our diSet1331011 supplement with a number of Peruvian words given by Mason in his description of the customs of the ancient peoples of Peru. The general impression I have gained from an examination of these linguistic relationships is that on this score the Polynesians have more in common with the peoples of Peru than with those of the islands to the west, the Malay archipelago, and India. The similarity in words of some of the numerals among some of the peoples in the west are in my opinion of an elementary character, and are of no great significance. Their words could have been borrowed by or from the Polynesians. Wtoows. Among both races a widow might not marry except to her husband's brother.

In ancient highland Peru, according to Mason, ancestor-worship and the cult of the dead were of great importance, and so mortuary customs were rather extensive. Women cut their hair and covered their heads. The possessions of the dead were burned, the rest buried with the wrapped body (p. 154). If coo were to say that the recital of genealogies and the mention of ancestors in ancient Maori laments and dirges constitute ancestor-worship, Mason's description of Peruvian custom relating to the dead agrees entirely with that of the Polynesian. PRKONANT WOM. In Peru pregnant women Wert, for religious reasons, not allowed to walk in the fields (p. 147). With the Maori such women, and also during mons., were mpg and the same prohibition applied. 'Ilk practice of a mother, as soon as possible after delivery, washing both herself and the child in a nearby stream was common to both the Peruvian and the Polynesian. Another custom that was common was the preservation of the umbilical cord, but with the Maori it was either delx4ited in a special underground cave or placed under a tree. In some instances it was buried and a young tree planted over it. (One of the best photographs of the late Timi Kara (Sir James Carroll) shows him standing alongside a kouha, or cabbage tree, growing OD the banks of the Wairoa River, under which tree" lks umbilical cord Wilt buried.) In ancient Peru, the eldest uncle cut the baby's nails and hair, preserving them carefully. The Maori treated these things in the same way as the umbilical cord, and they were carefully put away in caves or were buried. The naming of the child among the Maori was the prerogative of an imcle, and die name thus given the child bore until maturity, as was the ride in Peru (p. 147). With the Maori the uncle bestowed the name on the male children. EDUCATION. On education Mason writes: "For the child of the commoner there were no schools, no formal education. There being no system of writing there was little to learn that could not be imparted by the parents in ordinary conversation, and this education by precept and example was all that an average child got" (p. 147). The sons of the aristocracy and of hostages of high rank, however, received some formal instructions (Ibid.), as did do, "Chosen Women ". These "Chosen Women" spent four years learning domestic science, religion, weaving, cooking, and similar duties (p. 147). This account fairly covers the Maori, too, except with regard to the "Chosen Women" and religion. Among most Maori tribes women were not admitted to the sacred homes of learning. or where wooer,. lice among the Taintli tribes the eldest child if a daughter of a high chief was permitted to acquire certain rituals. She did this by listening in from outside during certain sessions of the school of learning. The door was lets ajar for her benefit. FOOD. Meat was kept by cutting it into thin strips, allowing it to dry, and pounding it. Fish and other watery foods were also dried for storage. Two meals per day, morning and evening, were thus the custom (p. 142). The Maori also observed the same custom and prepared his food for storage purposes in a similar manner. In addition the Maori also made huahua of game-ram and birds. These were deboned, carefully roasted, and then preserved in fat, using hollowed out wooden vessels or calabashes for the purpose. Mouth: CULTURE, 300-450 Mason makes mention of a Peruvian tribe called the Moche, and writes: "The picture of the Moche afforded us by the archaeologists is that of a dynamic, almost aggressive people, far along the road to civilisation (p. 73). The Moche world was obviously man's, and women definitely occupied an inferior position" (p. 74). The culture location is given as in the central coastal area of Peru, and it extended to the north into the valleys of Tupe, </pre>

(As already indicated the women also occupied a lower position in Maori life?and, I might add, they preferred it that way.) The names of the valleys mentioned are Maori words. CLOTHING. Women In Peru women wore a one-piece dress that combined skirt and blouse reaching to the ankles and hound at the waist by a long wide, woven and ornamented sash. At the top, it reached to the neck, the upper edges fastened together over the shoulders by long pins and passing under the arms at the sides. Like all garments, this dress was a large rectangular piece of woven cloth merely wound around the body (p. 144). The description as given above tallies with the mode of drtss of the Maori. Generally speaking the description given as applied to the Polynesian women might be qualified by explaining that it depended on what the wearer was doing as to the manner in which the woven cloaks were worn. Men: The men's cloak, in Peru, was a large mantle, worn over the shoulders and fastened at the front with large straight metal pin known as topo (Maori, topuni). Probably all men wore earplugs of some type, but the nobility, " Inca " by birth or privilege, wore such great plugs in orifices in the ear-lobes that this class was generally referred to as Ore-jones, Big Ears (Long Ears in Easter Island). On ceremonial and festive occasions, of course, they also donned gaudy head-dresses, collar of feathers, and similar regalia (p. 145). (Tainui 1. Inge: a fair-skinned person of an assertive nature. 2. Ingiki: Ancient honorific term, according to Te Kiri Katipa of the Waikato-Maniapoto tribes.) 'Ito word ingiki was used by 're Ua Hatimene of Taranaki in his Hau Pai Marire cult. Among the Maori, their feather cloaks, head bands, ear pendants and other regalia such as the tapeka (a wide sash worm toga-like) which was ornamented with geometrical woven designs of coloured wefts and known as taniko. Tate Lirrca (Mawr, amo). Litter like frames," writes Mason, were doubtless used in Peru "for carrying heavier objects, but the principal employment of the litter vas for the personal transportation of the higher nobility" (p. 1651. With the Polynesians, the amn, or litter, was similarly used, more generally for transportation of elderly people of rook and high-born women. SOCIAL ORGANISATION. Like the Maori hapu (sub-tribe), who did not encourage marriages with members of outside hapu, "the Inca names for family relationships," writes Mason, "suggests theirs was not a clan system with exogamy (or marriage outside the group) and descent reckoned in a single female line. The respective generations were of considerable importance." The Maori, likewise, placed great importance on their genealogies, or whakapapa. The Inca as a race called each other, as the Maori Polynesians do, by the same term as that employed for " brother " and " sister " and there were no distinctions between parallel and cram cousins by their own generation. (The Maori terms tungane, brothers or male cousins in parallel generations, and tuahine or sister and female cousins, were similarly med. Cousins of the earlier generation were termed rnatua (uncle) or wha (aunt); those of still earlier generation or cot/sins twice removed were latia, grandam, or karoua, grandsire. The Peruvian considered that a father had sons and daughters, but the mother had only children. The Maori father referred to his lama (son) and tamahine (daughter). 'lb mother more often referred to her daughter as take hoar? (my girl) and her son as tamaiti (male child) and her family as tamariki (children). 'file Maori terns for father and uncle and for mother and aunt were treated in exactly the same way in Peru. Mason writes, " the same terms were used for father and for father's brother (uncle), for mother and mother's sister (aunt)." To complete the affinity between Peru and Polynesia in the use of relationship terms, we have it from Mason that "the terms for brother and for sister, were different when used by a man and by a woman". With Polynesians, a man would refer to his sister or female cousin m a tuakine, and to younger brother or cousin </pre>

A woman, on the other hand, referred to a brother or a male cousin as tungane and to younger or older sister or cousins of a senior or junior with the terns used by a man?namely, teina or tuakono. Mason does not give the Peruvian or Inca relationship terms, and it is rather intriguing to speculate on a possible linguistic affinity in this connection. Sun-mums. ALL. (Peruvian); plats' (Maori). "In Inca tints, as in Peru today," writes Mason, "the basic social group of the people, apart from the immediate family, was the ayllu an enlarged or extended family, a sub-tribe." Like the Maori?Polyncsian haps all members of an ayllu were related?they owned a definite territory. Although the Maori did not exclusively reckon descent in the male line as did the Inca people, nevertheless the male fines among Polynesians gave added lustre to one's pedigree. Some ayllus of Peru, as is the case with the haps of Aotcaroa, ascribed their origin to mythical persons; and each had a name, generally that of a place or person. Residence was generally patrilmal; the son brought his wife to live with or near his parents. In this connection, and as a modern note, I should like to draw attention to the wedding celebrations of present-day Maori marriages; unlike that of the Pakeha, these are held among the people of the bridegroom. As was the case with the Maori, "the pattern of commoner agricultural labour for the support of the chief sinchi (ariki with the Maori) was a very ancient one. The chief had considerable authority." He Naas responsible for the acts of his tribesmen and for the avenging of wrongs done to them. As with the hap!, the ayllu had its "communal agricultural lands and woocIlands." Each recognised a founder and a common ancestor. The provinces of the Inca empire were divided each into four quarters called says. The Maori likewise refer to the homes and people on the periphery of extensive geographical area as being no nga has e wha (from the four winds). HooCA OR W., (Maori. waka). In the Pentvian torn huaca (Spanish spelling; " h " is not sounded in Spanish) we have an important and rather interesting linguistic affinity with the Polynesian teaks, or canoe. The alternative Spanish spelling with an aspirate, mars, has its counterpart in the Maori with the use of the preceding indefinite article, he, and a canoe may be referred to as he woks. Mason's notes on the significance of the teen waca adds strength to our belief that we have evidence here of unmistakable affinity between the two races. He writes: "Each fighting group carried into battle some of its portable idols, fetishes, or wacas, which served as morale sustainers and rallying points the word woes originally meant 'sacred shrine ', and is so used by the Indians today. In ancient, as in modern Peru, there were thousands of wacas; ranging from great temples to hills, springs, and piles of stones. Each was believed to be or to harbour a spirit which might be malevolent and which should he gratified or placated by some pngt or sacrifice." The Maori nooks, commonly used as the name for a canoe, was and is still used to very nearly the same extent and in a similar context to the Peruvian word described by Mason. Tilt: alternative Maori-Polynesian terms with similar connotation arc maari (or talisman, a material symbol of the hidden principle protecting vitality, fruitfulness, etc. of people, lands, fos and fuheries), and whore, the Maori word for house. The Peruvian had alternative tents too, as Mason mentions. Of the apachita he has this to say: "Another type of macs called apachita scan a sort of cairn at a dangerous or important place on a road where the traveller paused to pray for safety and strength; hence he would add a stone to the pile or leave something of trivial value such as a piece of worn-out clothing, a quid of coca, or even a handful of straw. This custom is still practised." This description is very similar to the Maori custom of whakarite (fulfil or render tribute) in the urutiru-whenua rite when entering into a (new) land. It </pre>

Those who have travelled on the TaupoPutaruno mod the Rotorua-Whakatane main highways will remember the hollow stone of Hattopato near Atianouri and the Wishing Tree on Hongi's Track, and will appreciate the significance of the simple rite described by Mason and recognise the affinity of the Maori custom of whakarite with the apachita of the Peruvian. CURACA: YANACONA (MAORI: kakakura AND akonga). "The low, class of nobility." writes MKS., "was known as the `curacy class '." An honorific term of the Maori for the nobly horn was kaka-kura. There appears to be a linguistic link here, too; a transposition of the first taco syllables and a duplication of the last syllable in curacy will produce the Maori kaka-kura. A further cultural affinity and a parallel linguistic term we find in the term yanacona, which Mason bas described as follows: "The royalty and nobility were allowed many privileges, such as the use of litters (anso of the Moon), parasols (whakamarumaru of the Maori) and attire somewhat resembling the emperor's, secondary wives, luxury articles, and yanacona sere.." The yanacona was another important getup of men, who were exempt from the labour-t. service. (The Peruvian, like the Polynesian, did not have a money economy, p. 188.) The yanacona "were selected in youth, removed from ayllu, or clan; some authorities believe that the craftsmen were included in the yanacona category. The hays were certainly selected for unusual intelligence, ability, or promise to rise to posts of considerable importance. The status is a little difficult to define. Some of them rose to be enracat themselves" (p. 180). The foregoing note fairly describes the class of priestly scholars of the Maori Whare-wananga, or School of Sacred Learning. These scholars wen: called nga akonga. Here we detect a linguistic affinity in sloe terms yanacona and nga akonga. A. The mode of fighting, construction of forts, causes of warfare, the ambition to excel in battle, and to " achieve glory and the advancement of perquisites and favours that fell to the brave and victorious warrior" (p. 190), were in every respect the same among both peoples. Their weapons were essentially of the same type: (1) The Peruvian's sling was the Maori kopere. (2) The main arm of the common soldier, the club, was the Maori mere or pats. (3) The "double-edged sword" (macana) as described by Mason is the Maori iaiaha. (We note here that the Maori word makana means to deliver as a blow or to throw.) (4) The Peruvian bola "consisted of several stones, each fastened to the end of a cord or thong, and the latter tied together at the other ends. Thrown, they whirled by centrifugal force and covered a considerable area, wrapping around the victim's body or legs" (p. 191). For the bola the Maori had the kotaha. SLEEPING. The late Sir Apirana Ngata said in a lecture at the Auckland University over thirty years ago that like his Maori forbears he preferred to sleep at floor level. Mason, on this subject writes: "Like the simplest of his subjects, the (Inca) ruler slept on the floor" (p. 185). CHIEFS WERE Tmm, OR SACRED. Writing of the Inca ruler's sacred person, Mason writes: " No one else might aspire to enjoy his so'or goods, so all his discards and left-ovens, clothing, food, or whatnot were carefully saved and ceremonially burnt by an official" (p. 185). The Maori ariki or high chief, was a like case; and he was very taps, or sacred; but in his case the foal or articles were more often buried. If they were burnt, a special fire for the purpose load to be made well away from all habitation, and under no circumstances were such things to be burnt in a fire used for cooking food.

A decimal system was adopted. The Maori term is tauponapona for a knotted cord, used for conveying information. RELIC/ON. Dealing with the religion of the Peruvians, Mason writes: "The supreme deity was the Creator, generally known as Viraconcha, but this name was merely one of his many titles. He is said to have had no true name, but, like the great god of some other people, his nane may have been too sacred to be spoken, and thus was unknown to the chroniclers.? I pause here to say that every word written here by Mason applies also to In, the supreme being of the Maori. I shall he ending this talk with sone further reference to the to religion td the Maori. and so for the present shall continue with some further quotations from Mason's book, which correspond with Polynesian beliefs. At page 202, Mason writes: After the creation he (the Creator) interfered little in human destinies, re- then a benign divinity in the heaven, Ile was therefore little worshipped by the common people; the emperor and nobles appealed to him more frequently?in time of trouble. The Creator god was apparently a very old and fundamental deity in Pent. Viracocha was also a culture hero who taught his people too to live. Properly speaking there were no churches in ancient Peru, for almost all cernnonics were performed out of doors, and only the priests and high officials entered the Confeuions were made to priests genera/Iy by the side of a stream. The insalid was then purified by washing, if he was bed-ridden; if he was able to walk he went to a stream or, better, to the junction of two riven and washed himself. I shall have to interrupt Mason's account here to say that the Maori did not confuse the supreme being To with their culture heroes like Maui and Tawhaki. Mason's note about the Creator not interfering in human destinies reminds me of an occasion when I went to visit the sick bed of one of our Maniapoto elder chiefs. Te Whare Hotu. Te Whare Hon] was one of the last two elders of our tribe who had some knowledge of the Tainui To cult, and be was also a student of the Bible. I was accompanied by a leading member of the Ratana church, and we found Te Whare Hotu lying in bed and looking far from After a time my companion offered to say some prayers, and Te Whare Hot, gave him permission to do so. As far as I am aware the apostles of the Ratana church do not undergo a course of theological training; my comrade?a cousin of Te Wham Hot.- -was a noted tribal orator, and in conducting his prayer session he prayed for a long time and got quite worked up. Towards the end he raised his voice as if he was speaking to a multitude. As soon as he had finished, Te Wham Hose sat up and berated his cousin and said, "Why shout? One would think Cod was deaf! And, furthermore, you prayed too long and repeated yourself too often in asking Cod to heal the sick and to make tee well. Don't you know the all-knowing Cod becomes hoha, or wearied, with importunity, the same as we do when our little grandchildren come round to worry us for lollies and titbits? I shall get well again, but it won't be because of your prayers." Te Whare Motu got well, as he had said, and died seventeen years later, at nearly ninety years of age. Asa mater of fact his cousin, many years his junior, died several years before bins. To end my quotations from Mason's book, at page 202 he writes: " More important in mundane again were the sky deities?the gods and goddesses of the sun, moon, stars and thunder these were all servants of the Creator. The cult of the Earth-mother was probably the oldest." At page 201 he continues: Incas were -worshippers. Naturafly the thunder or weather god (Moo war the divinity of next importance.

Inca star lore was extensive. many of the stars and constellations were given names the morning star was an important figure it. mythology. The name Pleiades took care of seeds. I could continue with several more pages of quotations from this excellent hook, but I shall have to be content with making a rather sketchy commtmtary on the notes I have just quoted. First, I would point out that the sun in Maori is deified, and as such is named Tama-inu-i-to-ra. (Ire-who-imbibes-the-Sun). Mason did not give a name for the sun god of Peru, but he gives the name Illapa for the god of thunder and lightning. The Maori names for the combined phenomena of lightning and thunder are uira-raropo, which approximates very closely to the Peruvian Illapa. The Peruvian myth of Illapa's sister and her jug xems to he a variation of the Maori myth of the moon goddess, who stumbled hccanse of a passing stonn cloud hiding the light of the morarna, the moon. In her fall she broke her calabash, and in anger she muttered a curse. The moon thereupon rushed down and taking a firm. hold, took her away into the heavens. Mason's mention of the stars, and in particular, Venus, reminds us that in the poetry and songs of the Maori the star names are mentioned frequently. The Pleiades, too, as is the case with the Peruvians, were greeted with joy and gladness as heralding the spring time of the year. I have not by any means exhausted the afTinities in the cultural elements of the two races, but my time is running out. Before concluding my discussion I should like to quote some affinities in the religious beliefs of both the Maori and the Peruvians. First, let me quote one of the most famous prayers as recorded by Mason at page 210 of his book: Viracodta, Lord of the Universe, Whether male or female, at any rate commander of heat and reproduction, being one who, even with Ili spittle, can work sorcery. Where art Thou? Would that Thou Wert not hidden from this son of Thine! He may be above; He may be below; or, perchance, abroad in space. Where is His mighty judgment-seat? Hear me! He may be thread abroad among the upper waters; or anions the lower waters and their sands He may be dwelling. Creator of the world, Creator of man, great among my ancestors, before Thee my eyes fail me, Thou I long to see Thee; for, xcing Thee, understanding Thee, I shall be seen by Thee, and Thou wilt know me. The Sun-the Moon; the Day-the Night; Summer Winter; not in vain, in orderly succession, do they march to their destined place, to their goal. They arrive wherever Thy royal staff Thou burnt. Oh! Hearken to me, listen to me, let it not befall that I grow weary and die. I shall now match the Peruvian prayer with a Maori invocation from the Tainui To School of Learning: The.

In Me Night of Te Parnaltu, " the Creation Night", The Celestial Voice of Eternity spoke, saying: "Let this World. this sacred abiding-place, Bea World of Light Eternal," A great Light Men ocrspread Creation, The Waters, ail encompassing, follow in its wake. And, raised on high, in tremulous sawn, was Makaia, "the Sacred Curve", Hallowed Holy, The Voice then make again soft., "Let the Waters now recede, And let the Firmament appear:" At once the Waters were separated And the Firmament appeared. Then Mere came the Dawn of To Aiukst, "the Widespread Calm", And there, tm was the Primeval Being, lo, "the Supreme Being"! lo-the-foremost", lo moa, lo-the-elevatene", "hrall-ernbracing ", ",the-shelterinne", I o-Antva, " Io-the vibrant-one", lo hana, "10-the-glowing-one"; The Infinite The Eternal. At this point we are still twenty-two epochal nights of creation away from the birth of Ranginui-e-tu-iho-nci (the Great Sky that stands above) and Papatuanuku (the Earth that lies beneath). I desire now to address a few remarks to the scientists here assembler!. I think that the terminology used by the priesthood of the Whare Wananga, School of Sacred Learning, reveals the fact that they had pondered deeply on the nature of the cosmos. For instance, "the Formless Void," piererx1 by a Line (or ray of light) extending into space, could very well he a typical Polynesian symbolical terminology to describe the proemial point in the evolution of the cosmos, when force (or the "Let there be light" of the Bible) appeared to radiate through space. The terminology of the evolutionary periods, termed Po, or Night, are not only poetical but also helpful in gaining an insight into the priestly conception of the Polynesian as to the varied phenomena which marked the birth of "the World of Stars", "Floating Moons"," the Far-flung Universe", mid so on down to the Earth-mother, or "The Earth-that-lieeneath". For dramatic presentation it would he difficult to better the dcription of the striving of "the Bitterly-cold Universe " and "the Bitterlold Night" through the epochal perials called " the Knocking Sounds" and " the Indrawn-breath of Heaven" to give birth to " the. Shattered and Expanding Universe" and "the Shattered and Expanding Night". I shall here present a comparison with the scientist and with others of the Tainui lo Cult Fifth intermission which 1 have already given. I shall give it again. The Maori: Sanctified Men was the darkness of the Sacred Night. It was Te Po-aoaui. " the Night-with-the-arontf-sprouting-things". Now here it is as the Hebrew had it: And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. (Genis.) The Maori: The Ao Aio " the becalmed Universe" "the night" strove mightily during the epochal period Te Poutritai "the Dark green Night" and begat Te Ao Where, "the Reddened Universe" and it Po Whero, "the Reddened Night" </pre>

Te Hangihiroa in his "Vikings of the Sunrise" rejected the southern Melanesian migration route because as he observes, "In general the Polynesians are physically very different from the lielancsiana. had they stopped at Melanesian islands to refit their ships and gather now supplies, it is probable that racial intermixture would have taken place." .. he went on to say, "Much of the linguistic evidence formerly cited in support of an original west to east migration of Polynesians through Melanesia has recently been proved to indicate a movement from Polynesia westward to the marginal islands of Melanesia." Finally Pe Rangihiroa propounded the theory that the northern route, which was the only other possible west to east island-studded route into the Pacific, as being the route followed by our Polynesian ancest"Jrs.

(1) As a note of reminiscence of that great man - a lovaule character in every way - I shoulu like to recall at this sta,e an early incident in my youth. Te hangihiroa was discussing ha,aiki with a group of young people, and I had the temerity to object to one of the propositions then propounded that our ancestors had been, as it were, pushed from "pillar to post" by the pressure of population in Java, and other islands leading easterly to Melanesia, and onwards into what is now Polynesia. I argued that we were better fighters than any of the races that inhabited the islands along that route. re Rangihiroa only smilod. Te Hangibiroa summed up the argument against the Melanesian migration route and in favour of that through Micronesia or the northern route by saying, "Strong support in favour of the Micronesian route lies in the positive evidence against the route through Melanesia." (I) He also quoted Gifford who analysed the mythology of ronga and found "that twenty-seven elements were shared with Micronesia and Len with Melanesia, some of which may be due to recent contact with Fiji."

Theory of American Origin. Although various writers have put forward somewhat tentative ideas of Amorioa being, the homeland, or Hawaiki, of the Polynesians, the credit for this forthright claim must go to Thor Heyerdahl. In his "American Lidians in the Pacific" (1904) he has, in my opinion, put forward a very strong case, if not a conclusive one in favour of America being the principal steppin, stone in the movement of the race from "somewhere in western Asia, northwards by way of Northeastern Siberia and north-western America into the New World." (1) 48ae1 Heyerdahl, under v. headings, has covered all the various arguments that have been put forwaru by a host of writers over the years. A complete list of the chapter headings in his book of over eight hundred pages sill indicate the wide coverage of his painstaking research work. And it is a wonder to us thaw. no one has attempted to make a critical examination of his work in order to discredit the theory he has so confidently and clearly put forward. We say this because there hay not been a dearth of critics who have simply dismissed his conclusions without any sound arguments to justify their objections to his theor} of an American origin for the Polynesian peoples. We ourselves had an initial objection; a poor one really, as it concerned the title ho gave to his book, "American Indians in the Pacific." To our mind the first title he had in mind, namely, "The American Origins 1. Heyerdahl, "American Indians in the Pacific" 1554 7. </pre>

(1) would have been a better title. However, I suppose, the American book market dictated the choice of a name for the book. Recalling my youthful argument with our kindly elder, re Aangihiroa, I was pleased to note that Heyerdahl - in dealing with the migration route through Melanesia and as an argument against the theory that "the popul,tion pressure caused by the Malay invasion of Indonesia may have started the ancestors of the Polynesian peoples on their search for new homelands in the Pacific." (k he wrote :- "Are we to suppose that the courageous Polynesian warriors abandoned all their own settlements and made off upon the arrival of small Malay people from the Asiatic mainland? If so the character of all Maori-Polynesians must have changed greatly since then. They did not floe New Zealand when the 4ngliskumen arrived. We may very well accept the possibility that a big enough boatload of Malays may have driven Maori-Polynesians away from a settlement, a valley, or even a small island, but not that they cleared the whole Indonesian archipelago of tall and warlike Polynesians. It is unbelievable that every tribe throughout Indonesia should have fled in search of new homes in an unknown ocean upon the arrival of the first Malays; on the other hand, if 1.

Allowing that some exposed groups of Polynesiona from one of the ,iurginal islands ma, have deserted the fertile Indonesian archipelago in favour of the barren atolls of Micronesia, we must still wonder why these are no vestiges of the other and remaining Polynesian occupants of Indonesia. No physical type corresponding to the tall Polynesian has boon pointed out in this archipelago, neither have archaeologists found any evidence of early Polynesian burials or settlements."

In Part 111 of his book lieyerdahl explains that "The travelling distance between fixed points in the Paolfic water-space is not told by a glance at the map As an example ue mention that the Kon-tiki raft, after ploughing through less than three thousand miles of surface water from the coast of Peru, had reached the Tuamotu islands which are move than four thousand miles away. An engine uriven craft, going in the contrary direction, against the trade wind but at the same speed as Kon - Tiki's average drift, would have to cover between five anu six thousand miles of moving, surface water to reach Peru from the same Tuamotu islands." lie does on to say, "As no sailing craft can maintain as high a speed against the wind as before it, we find that there is for primitive craft, in actual travelling miles, at least twice as far to sail from Polynesia to Peru as from Peru to Polynesia." The Kon-tiki took 101 da,s to drift from Callao in Peru to haroia Reef, which is south of the Marquesas. do that, Te hangihiroa's hypothetical kumara vo,agers, if they were able to maintain the same average speed as the Kon-tikils drift, would have taken about seven months of hard paddling across empty seas to reach Peru.

He completed the series of voyages across the widest part of the great Pacific Ocean between Asia and South aLerice.

Te Hangihiroa died before publication of Heyerdahl's book "American Indians in the Pacific."

The general pattern as we see it is that tire theory of an oast to west migration route is no longer ;:enable. fe Hangihiroa himself had rejected the Lielunesian route, and his own theory of an alternative migration route easterly through lAcronesia was dealt with bj Muruock and hr. Shapiro at the Pacific Science Congress which was held in New Zealand in 194b, and in the two papers presented by these men - "Cultural Sub-areas in Micronesia," and "Physical Anthropology of kicronesia" - there was an absence of any inoication of a Polynesian passage through Bicronesia. "The discussion that followed the presentation of these papers," writes heyerdahl, "show that all Polynesian influence in iIcronesia was cue Lo colonists from Samoa and Tonga, a movement in the opposite direction from it should have been had the Polynesians come from the west. Sven Buck .. was non obliged to admit that Polynesian settlements in Micronesia aid not support his view that the Polynesians had passed through that region from Indonesia. He admitted that ho had been under the impression that the Polynesian influence on the two Picronesian atolls of Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro, taken in conjunction with certain similarly affected Melanesian islands directly south of them, represented the trail of the Polynesian into the Pacific," (1) Hojerdahl, 195'c p. 68. </pre>

Our own mind on the complex problem of migration routes wAJ the settlement of Polynesia is briefly sec. out in an article contributed to the Polynesian Journal (1967 Vol. 96/1) Apropos of the remark made by To hangihiroa that Polynesian influence in Micronesia had "lost impetus after a certain distance" although not directed ao hangihiroa's observation, we had this to say :- "One thing we should re-examine is this matter of the dispersal point of the pe.,ples of the Pacific. the picture as I see it is of a migration stream arrested at its centre by the eastern island groups of Melanesia, and then, during succeeding generations, brunches flowing around a hardening core of increasing population, firstly in Tonga, Samoa, then Tahiti. Like the delta mouth of a river the various side branches would flow outwards and on either side of the main stream from a progressively higher point up-stream of the sluggish waters ahead. My impression is that the puzzling features in the cultural affinities between the various island groups would be better explained by the theory indicated above." </pre>

Alden Mason, the Ancient Civilisations of Peru. The comparisons and the general explanations of various cultural aspects concerning the conformity of Polynesian traits with those of the Peruvians are entirely ours. The author of the book makes only a paasing and brief mention of the Polynes- ians. One note he makes might be quoted, as follows :- "The phy4leul t,pe of the Polynesians, their language, and the fundamentals of their culture connect them with south-eastern Asia rather than with America, and there is little doubt that they originally came from the Malayan region at no very remote period. In fact, they still retain very detailed legends of their migrations, at least of the later ones. The recent drift of a raft from Callao, Peru, to the Polynesian tuamotu Islands proved that such a voyage was feasible for unpowered craft, though not Heyerdahlts belief that the islands ,ere populated in this .ruler." Throughout his book the author appears to have been quite oblivious of the fact that the various customs, mode of dress and cultural aspects of the peoples of Peru as noted by him were in any way analagous to the peoples of Polynesia. This being so we conclude that his account was not in any way influenced by any theories of affinity between the Polynesians and the Peruvians. </pre>

This has been the subject of much research work and his statement can be shown to be wrong. we shall now examine the analogical aspects we have alluded to :- Name.; Like the Pol;,nesians, there were no surnames in ancient Peru (48). A child was given any name that appealed to the parents, generally cescriptive of some quality, or referring to birds, fishes, places or other natural phenomena. A person bore several different names in various stages of his life. Incest: In ancient Peru incest restrictions were not so great as among peoples of the Old World. There were few for men of top rank; the last several Inca emperors married their full sisters, and nobles were allowed to marr., their half sisters. Among the commoners, marriage was permitted with a first cousin, but prohibited for closer relationships. (1,1) Among the Maori people the aristocracj generally married first cousins. There were cases of marriages between uncles and nieces and some with gran: nieces.

Among both races, a widow might not marry except to her husband's brother. In addition to inheriting the wife or wives of his dead brother, a man inherited his father's wives. (P. 152). CUSTOMS RELATING TO THE DEAD. In ancient highland Peru, according to Mason, ancestor-worship and the cult of the dead were of great importance, and so mortuary customs were rather extensive..women cut their hair and covered their heads.. The possessions of the dead were burned, the rest buried with the wrapped body. (Page 154). If we were to say that the recital of genealogies and the mention of ancestors in ancient Maori laments and dirges constitute ancestor-worship the Mason's description of Peruvian custom relating to the dead agrees entirely with that of the Polynesian. PREGNANT WOMEN In Peru were, for religions reasons, not allowed to walk in the fields (Page 147). With the Maori such women, and also during menses, were tapu and the same probition applied. The practice of a mother, as soon as possible after delivery, washing both herself and the child in a near-by stream was common to both the Peruvian ( Ibid ) and the Polynesian. Another custom that was common was the preservation of the umbilical cord, but with the Maori it was either deposited in a special underground cave or placed under a tree. </pre>

(One of the best known photographs of the late Timi Kara - Sir James Carroll - shows him standing alongside a kouka,or cabbage tree, growing on the banks on the Wairoa River, under which tree his umbilical cord was buried). In ancient Peru, the eldest uncle cut the baby's nails and hair, preserving them carefully. The Maori treated these things in the same way as the umbilical cord and they were carefully put away in caves or were buried. The naming of the child was the perogative of an uncle, and the name thus given the child bore until maturity, was the rule in Peru.(Page 147). With the Maori the uncle bestowed the name on the male children. EDUCATION. Afasax/ On education, Maori writes: - "For the child of the commoner there were no schools, no formal education. There being no system of writing there was little to learn that could not be imparted by the parents in ordinary conversation, and this education by precept and example was all that average child got. (Page 147). The sons of the aristocracy and of hostages of high rank, however, received some formal instructions (Ibid) as did the 'Chosen Women.' These 'Chosen Women' spent four years learning domestic science, religion, weaving, cooking and similar duties. (P. 147). This account fairly covers the Maori too, except with regard to the 'Chosen Women' and religion. Among most Maori tribes women were not admitted to the Sacred houses of learning, or where wanangk. </pre>

She did this by listening in from outside during certain sessions of the school of learning. The door was left ajar for her benefit. FOOD. Meat was kept by cutting it into thin strips, allowing it to dry, and pounding it. Fish and other watery foods were also dried for storage..Two meals per day, morning and evening, were thus custom. (42). The Maori also observed the same custom and prepared his food for storage purposes in a similar manner. In addition the Maori also made huahua of game - rats and birds. These were debowed, carefully roasted, and then preserved in fat - using hollowed-out wooden vessels or calabashes for the purpose. MOCHE CULTURE. (300-450 ) Mason makes mention of a Peruvian tribe called the Moche and writes: - "The picture of the Moch afforded us by the archaeologists is that of a dynamic, almost aggresive, people, far along the road to civilisation. (3) The Moche world was obviously man's, and women definitely occupied an inferior position." (4). The culture location is Ve given as in the Central Coastal area of Peru, and it extended to the north into the valleys of Tupe, Paramonga and Huarmey (or Hua-mai to the Maori). (P. 71). As already indicated the women also occupied a lower position in Maori life - and, we might add, they preferred it that way. The name of the valleys mentioned are Maori words. </pre>

WOMEN In Peru, women wore a one-piece dress that combined skirt and blouse reaching to the ankles and bound at the waist by a long wide, woven, and ornamented sash. At the top, it reached to the neck, the upper edges fastened together over the shoulders by long pins and passing under the arms at the sides. Like all garments, this dress was a large rectangular piece of woven cloth, merely wound around the body. (44). The description as given above tallies with the mode of dress of the Maori, Generally speaking the description given as applied to the Polynesian women might be qualified by explaining that it depended on what the wearer was doing as tocanner i hich the woven cloaks were worn. MEN. The men's cloak, in Peru, was a large mantle, worn over the shoulders and fastened at the front with a large straight metal pin known as topo. (Maori: - Topuni 2. Completely covered Black dogskin cloak Wd 6/437) Probably all men wore earplugs of some type, but the nobility, 'Inca' by birth or privilege, (Tainui: nga: A fairakinned person of an assertive nature. ngiki: Ancient honorific term (According to Te Kiri Katipa of the Waikato - Maniapoto tribes). Used by Te Ua Haumene of Taranaki in his Hau Pal Marire Cult), wore ouch great plugs in orifices in the ear-lobes that this class was generally referred to Ore-Jones, Big Ears (Long Ears in Easter Island) On ceremonial and festive occasions, of course, they also donned gaudy head-dresses, collars of feathers, and similar regalia.

"Litter like frames," writes Mason, were doubtless used in Peru "for carrying heavier objects, but the principal employment of the litter was for the personal transportation of the higher nobility. (65). With the Polynesian the amo, or litter was similarly used, more generally used for transportation of elderly people of rank and high born women. SOCIAL ORGANISATION. Like the Maori hapu (subtribe), who did not encourage marriages with members of outside hapu; "The Inca names, for family relationships," writes Mason, suggest theirs was not a clan system with exogamy (or marriage outside the group) and descent reckoned in a single female line. The respective generations were of considerable importance." Likewise the Maori placed great importance on the genealogies, or whakapapa. The Inca as a race called each other, as the MaoriNelynesian do, by the same term as that employed for 'brother' and 'sister' and there were no distinction between parallel and cross cousins by their own generation. (The Maori terms, tungine brothers or male cousins of parallel generations, and 'tuahine' or sister and female cousins, were similarly used. Cousins of the earlier generation were termed matua (uncle) or whaea (aunt); those of a still earlier generation or cousins twice removed were kuia, grandam, or koroua, grandsire.) The Peruvian considered that a father had sons and daughters, but the mother had only children. The Maori father referred to his son as tama (son) and tamahine (daughter); </pre>

The Maori terms for father and uncle, and for mother and aunt, were treated in exactly the same way in Peru. Mason writes, "The same terms were used for father and for father's brother, (uncle), for mother and mother's sister (aunt). To complete the affinity between Peru and Polynesia in the usLof relationship terms, we have it from Mason that "the terms for brother and for sister; were different when used by a man and by a woman. With Polynesians, a man would refer to his sister or female cousin as a tuahine, and to younger brother or cousin of a junior line as teina, and to an elder brother or senior cousin as tuakana; A woman on the other hand, referred to a brother or male cousin as tungane and to younger or older sister or cousins of a senior or junior with the terms used by a man namely teina or tuakana. Mason does not give the Peruvian or Inca relationship terms, and it is rather intriguing to speculate bn a possible linguistic affinity in this connection. </pre>

Mason's notes on the significance of the term waca adds strength to our belief that we have evidence here of unmistakeable affinity between the two races. ne writes : "Lech fighting group carried into battle some of its portable idols, fetishes, or wacas, which served as morale sustainers and rallying points the word waca originally meant 'sacred shrine,' and is so used by the Indians today In ancient, as in modern Peru, there were thousands of wacas; ranging from great temples to hills, springs and piles of stones. each was believed to </pre>

The Maori wake, commonly used as the name for a canoe, was and is still being used to very nearly the same extent anu in a similar context to the Peruvian word described by Mason. The alternative Maori-Polynesian terms with similar connotation are mauri (or Talisman, a material symbol of the hi,i6en principle protecting vitality, fruitfulness, etc., of people, lands, forests and fisheries), and where, the Maori word for house. The Peruvian had alternative terms too, as Mason mentions. Of the apaohita he has this to say :"Another type of waca called apachlta was a sort of cairn at a dangerous or important place on a road where the traveller paused to pray for safety and strength; hence he would add a stone to the pile or leave something of trivial value such as a piece of worn-out clothing, a quid of coca, or even a handful of straw, This custom is still practiced." Phis description is very similar to the Maori custom of whakarite (fulfill or render tribute) in the uruuru-whenua rite when entering into (new) land. It could very Well be caat the Peruvian term apechita, with its letter changes, is the same term as the Polynesian whakarite. those who have travelled on the raupo-Putaruru andthe iotorua-.hakatane main highways will remember the hollow stone of HatUpatu near' Atiamuri and the </pre>

There appears to be a linguistic, link here, tot.; transposition and duplication of the last syllable in Curaca will produce the Maori Kaka-kura. A further cultural affinity any a parallel linguistic term we find in'the term yanacona, which Yason has described as follows :- "The royalty and nobility were allowed many privileges such us the use of litters (amo of the Maori), parasols (whakemarumaru of the Maori) and attire somewhat resembling the emperor's, secondary wives, luxury articles and iyanacona, servants. "The 5anacona was another importent group of men, who were exempt from the labour-tax service. (The Peruvian like the Polynesian did not have a money economy - 88).

At page Mason wrote :- "After the creation he (the Gruator) interfered little in /amen destinies, remaining a benign divinity in the heavens.

We shall have to interrupt' Lason's account hare to say that the Maori did not confuse the Supreme Being, Io, with their culture heroes like Mgui and TEwhaki. Mason's note about the Creator not interfering in human destinies reminds me of an occasion when I went to visit the sick bed of one of our Maniapoto elder chiefs, 'Pe ohare itotu. To share hotu was one of the last two elders of our tribe who had some knowledge of the Tainui Io cult, and he was also a student of the Bible.

Mason wrote at page 20, ;- "More important in mundane affairs were the sky deities - the gods and goddesses of the sun, moon, scars and thunder these were all servants of the Creator. The cult of the Earth-mother was probably the oldest." At page 204, he continues :- "Incas were sun-worahippers..Naturally the Thunder or Leather God (Illapa) was the divinity of next importance The name Illapa connotes both thunder and lighting. he was envisa,ed as man According to one myth, his sister kept the rain in a jug which Illapa b oke with his sling shot when he yielded to earthlings pleas of rain.

Firstly we would point out that the sun in Maori is deified and as such is named Tama-inu-i-to-re. (He-who-imbibes-theSun). Mason did not give a name for the sun god of Peru, but he gives the name Illapa for the god of thunder and lighting.

In her tall she broke her calabash and in anger she muttered a curse. The noon therefore rushed down and taking a fire hold took her away into the heavens. Mason's mention of the stars, and in particular, Venus reminds us that in the poetry and songs of the Maori the star names are mentioned frequently. The Pleiades, too, as is the case with the Peruvians were greeted with Jey and gladness as heralding the spring tire of the year. We have not by any mans exhausted the affinities in the cultural eleuents of the two races, but our tine is running out, and we will content ourselves at this stage by saying that up to this point in our discussion - to use a ?Ticketing parlance - an astute captain, having established a commending lead, should declare the innings closed. But before leaving the field we should like to quote sous affinities in the religious beliefs on a higher level of both the Maori and the Peruvians.

These islands served as the western facade of Polynesia. Te Rangihiroa in his "Vikings of the Sunrise" rejected the southern Melanesian migration route because as he observes, "In general the Polynesians are physically very different from the Melanesians. Had they stopped at Melanesian islands to refit their ships and gather new supplies, it is probable that racial intermixture would have taken place." .. He went on to say, "Much of the linguistic evidence formerly cited in support of an original west to east migration of Polynesians through Melanesia has recently been proved to indicate a movement from Polynesia westward to the marginal islands of Melanesia." Finally Te Rangihiroa propounded the theory that the northern route, which was the only other possible west to east Aor- island-studded route into the Pacific, as being the route followed by our Polynesian ancestors. This route leads "through Yap, Palau, and the Caroline Islands; then it branches, one line leading northeast through the Marshall Islands toward Hawaii, and one going </pre>

(1) As a note of reminiscence of that great man - a lovable character in every way - I should like to recall at this stage an early incident in my youth. Te Rangihiroa was discussing Hawaiki with a group of young people, and I had the temerity to object to ono of the propositions then propounded that our ancestors had been, as it were, pushed from "pillar to post" by the pressure of population in Java, and other islands leading easterly to Melanesia, and onwards into what is now Polynesia. I argued that we were better fighters than any of the races that inhabited the islands along that route. re Hangihiroa only smiled. Pe Hangihiroa summed up the argument against the Melanesian migration route and in favour of that through Micronesia or the northern route by saying, "Strong support in favour of the Micronesian route lies in the positive evidence against the route through Melanesia."

Theory of American Origin. Although various writers have put forward somewhat tentative ideas of America being the homeland, or Hawaiki, of the Polynesians, the credit for this forthright claim must go to Thor Heyerdahl. In his "American Indians in the Pacific" (19b2) he has, in my opinion, put forward a very strong case, if not a conclusive one in favour of America being the principal stepping stone in the movement of the race from "somewhere in ;astern Asia, northwards by way of Northeastern Siberia and north-western America into the New world." (1) Heyerdahl, underyariouspleadings, has coveredXwll the .14-44 arguments/that have been put forward by, a host of writers over the years. A complete list of the chapter headings in his book of over eight hundred pages will indicate the wide coverage of his painstaking research work. 4du is a wonder to us that no one has attempted to make a critical examination of his work in oraer to discredit the theory he has so confidently and clearly put forward. we say this because there has not been a dearth of critics who have simply dismissed his conclusions without any sound arguments to 'ustify their objections to his theory of an American origin for the Polynesian peoples. We ourselves had an initial objection; a poor one really, as it concerned the title he gave to his book, "American Indians in the Pacific." ro our mind the first title he had in mind, namely, "The American Origins 1.

(1) would have been a better title. However, 1 suppose, the American book market dictated the choice of a name for the book. vecalling my youthful argument with our kindly elaer, Te :iangihiroa, I was pleased to note that heyerdahl - in dealing with the migration route through Melanesia and as an argument against the theory that "the population pressure caused by the Malay invasion of'Indonesia may have started the ancestors of the Polynesian peoples on their search for new homelands in the Pacific." (2) he wrote :- "Are we to suppose that the courageous Polynesian warriors abandoned all their own settlements and made off upon the arrival of small Malay people from the Asiatic mainland? If so the character of all Maori-Polynesians must have changed greatly since then. They did not flee New Zealand when the knglishmen arrived. .e may very well accept the possibility that a big enough boatload of Malays may have driven Maori-Polynesians away from a settlement, a valley, or even a small island, but not that they cleared the whole Indonesian archipelago of tall and warlike Polynesians. It is unbelievable that every tribe throughout Indonesia should have fled in search of new homes in an unknown ocean upon the arrival of the first Malays; on the other hand, if 1.

Allowing that some exposed groups of Polynesions from one of the marginal islands may have deserted the fertile Indonesian archipelago in favour of the barren atolls of ,acronesia, we must still wonder why there are no vestiges of the other and remaining Polynesian occupants of Indonesia. No physical type corresponding to the tall Polynesian has been pointed out in this archipelago, neither have archaeologists found any evidence of early Polynesian burials or settlements."

In Part 111 of his book Heyerdahl explains that "the travelling distance between fixed points in the Pacific water-space is not told by a glance at the map As an example we mention that the Kon-tiiti raft, after ploughing through less than three thousand miles of surface water from the coast of Peru, had reached the Tuamotti islands which are more than four thousand miles away. An engine driven craft, going in the contrary direction, against the trade wind but at the same speed as Kon - Tiki's average drift, would have to cover between five and six thousand miles of moving surface 'hater to reach Peru from the same Tuamotu islands." He goes on to say, "As no sailing craft can maintain as high a speed against the wind as before it, we find that there is for primitive craft, in actual travelling miles, at least twice as far to sail from Polynesia to Peru as from Peru to Polynesia." The Kon-tiki took 101 da s to drift from Callao in Peru to Raroia Reef, which is south of the N,arouesas.

Te Rangihiroa concludes his story in his own inimitable style in these words :- "Contact was too short to make any lasting exchange in religious or social ideas The unknown Polynesian voyager who brought back the sweet-potato from South America, made the greatest individual contribution to the records of the Polynesians. He completed the series of voyages across the widest part of the great Pacific Ocean between Asia and South America. Tradition is strangely silent. We know not his name or the name of his ship, but the unknown hero ranks among the greatest of the Polynesian navigators for he it was who completed the great adventure.

The general pattern as we see it is that the theory of an east to west migration route is no longer tenable. Te dengihiroa himself had rejected the Melanesian route, and his own theory of an alternative migration route easterly through Micronesia was dealt with by Murdock and Dr. Shapiro at the Pacific Science Congress which was held in New Zealand in 1949, and in the two papers presented by these men - "Cultural Sub-areas in Micronesia," and "Physical Anthropology of Micronesia" - there was an absence of any indication of a Polynesian passage through Micronesia. "The discussion that followed the presentation of these papers," writes Heyerdahl, "show that all Polynesian influence in Micronesia was due to colonists from Samoa and Tonga, a movement in the opposite direction from what it should have been has the Polynesians came from the west. Even Buck .. was now obliged to admit that Polynesian settlements in Micronesia did not support his view that the Polynesians hag passed through that region from Indonesia. He admitted that he had been under the impression that the Polynesian influence on the two Micronesian atolls of Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro, taken in conjunction with certain similarly affected Melanesian islands directly south of them, represented the trail of the Polynesian into the Pacific."

Our own mind on the complex problem of migration routes and the settlement of Polynesia is briefly set out in en article contributed to the Polynesian Journal (1957 Vol. 66/1) Apropos of the remark made by Te hangihiroa that Polynesian influence in Micronesiad "lost impetus after a certain distance" although not directed at Te hangihiroa's observation, we had this to say :- "One thing we should re-examine is this matter of the dispersal point of the peoples of the Pacific. The picture as I seeit is of a migriition stream arrested at its centre by the eastern island groups of Melanesia, and then, during succeeding generations, branches flowing around a hardening core of increasing population, firstly in Tonga, Samoa,: then Tahiti. Like the delta mouth of a river the various side brancnes would flow outwards and on either side of the main stream from a progressively higher point up-stream of the sluggish waters ahead. My impression is that the puzzling features in the cultural affinities between the various island groups would be better explained by the theory indicated above." </pre>

Earlier in the article we had made certain observations and wrote :- "At page 115 of ;Andrew Sharp's book (Ancient Voyages in the Pacific) he has made a reference to an Easter Island study by an ethnologist who considered that the culture showed analogies with sew Zealand, the Tuamotus, Mangareva, the Marquesas and Hawaii. Evidence on similar lines is indicated by the distribution of certain adze types as described by. Dr.! Roger Duff in his book "The Eoa-hunter Period of Maori Culture" (Pe,e 43 and sketch map, figure 32). "To my mind this evidence indicates a dispersal point for the outlying islands (Hawaii and New Zealand) as being well be the east or the Tahiti Group. The dialects as spoken on these islands also have many points of similarity, and in my opinion all these analogical aspects are significant pointers to the migration routes followed by the'peoples of the Pacific as being in a south-westerly direction from or by way of the Tuamotu Archipelago: especially the Tainui, Te areas, b;atatua and Tokomaru peoples. The ,sotea people, on the other hand, in speech and traditional lore, have stronger links with the Tahitian Group than the other peoples mentioned." we shall now direct our attention to various cultural affinities and analogical aspects in relation to the peoples of Polynesia and those oeru.

Before proceeding further with our uiscussion perhaps we should point out that Mason was not altogether correct in the statement that "Polynesian physical types and the fundamentals of their culture connect them with south-eastern Asia at no very remote period." This has been the subject of much research work and his statement can ce shown to be wrong. We shall no, examinethe analogical aspects we have alluded to :- Names: Like the Polynesians, there were no surnames in ancient Peru (48). A child was given any name that appealed to the parents, generally descriptive of some quality, or referring to birds, fishes, places or other natural phenomena. A person bore several different names in various stages of his life. Incest: In ancient Peru incest restrictions were not so great as among peoples of the Old world. There were few for men of top rank; the last several Inca emperors married their full sisters, and nobles were allowed to marry, their half sisters. Among the commoners, marriage was permitted with a first cousin, but prohibited for closer relationships. (61) Among the Maori people the aristocracy generally married first cousins. there were cases of marriages between uncles and nieces and some with grand nieces.

Among both races, a widow might not marry except to her husband's brother. In addition to inheriting the wife or wives of his dead brother, a man inherited his father's wives. (52). CUSTOMS RELATING TO THE DEAD. In ancient highland Peru, according to Mason, ancestor-worship and the cult of the dead were of great importance, and so mortuary customs were rather extensive..women cut their hair and covered their heads.. The possessions of the dead were burned, the rest buried with the wrapped body. (Page 154). If we were to say that the recital of genealogies and the mention of ancestors in ancient Maori laments and dirges constitute ancestor-worship,t0e Mason's description of Peruvian custom relating to the dead agrees entirely with that of the Polynesian. PREGNANT WOMEN In Peru were, for religious reasons, not allowed to walk in the fields (Page 147). With the Maori such women, and also during menses, were tapu and the same probition applied. The practice of a mother, as soon as possible after delivery, washing both herself and the child in a near-by stream was common to both the Peruvian (Ibid) and the Polynesian. Another custom that was common was the preservation of the umbilical cord, but with the Maori it was either deposited in a special underground cave or placed under a tree. </pre>

(one of the best known photographs of the late Timi Kara - Sir James Carroll - shows him standing alongside a kouka, or cabbage tree, growing on the banks of the Wairoa River, under which tree his umbilical cord was buried). In ancient Peru, the eldest uncle cut the baby's nails and hair, preserving them carefully. The Maori treated these things in the same way as the umbilical cord and they were carefully put away in caves or were buried. The naming of the child/was the perogative of an uncle, and the name thus given the child bore until matur- a4 ity,kwas the rule in Peru. (Page 147). With the Maori the uncle bestowed the name on the male children. EDUCATION. On educatio94Nacri writes:- "For the child of the commoner there were no schools, no formal education. There being no system of writing there was little to learn that could not be imparted by the parents in ordinary conversation, and this education by precept and example was all that average child got. (Page 147). The sons of the aristocracy and of hostages of high rank, however, received some formal instructions (Ibid) as did the 'Chosen Women.' These 'Chosen Women' spent four years learning domestic science, religion, weaving, cooking and similar duties. (47). This account fairly covers the Maori too, except with regard to the 'Chosen Women' and religion. Among most Maori tribes women were not admitted to the Sacred houses of learning, or whare watga </pre>

She did this by listening in from outside during certain sessions of the school of learning. The door was left ajar for her benefit. FOOD. Meat was kept by cutting it into thin strips, allowing it to dry, and pounding it. Fish and other watery foods were also dried for storage.. Two meals per day, morning and evening, were thueustom.-.(42). The Maori also observed the same custom and prepared his food for atprage purposes in a similar manner. In addition the Maori also made huahua of game - rata and birds. These were debolad, carefully roasted, end then preserved in fat - using hollowed-out wooden vesseks or calabashes for the purpose. MOCHE CULTURE. (300-450 ) Mason makes mention of a Peruvian tribe called the Moche, and writes: - "The picture of the Moche afforded us by the archaeologists is that of a dynamic, almost aggresive, people, far along the road to civilisation. (3). The Moche world was obviously man's, and women definitely occupied an inferior position." (4). The culture location is is given as in the Central Coastal area of Peru, and it extended to the north into the valleys of Tupe, Paramonga and Huarmey (or Hua-mai to the Maori). (1). As already indicated the women also occupied a lower position in Maori life - and, we might add, they preferred it that way. The names of the valleys mentioned are Maori words. </pre>

WOMEN In Peru, women wore a one-piece dress that combined skirt and blouse reaching to the ankles and bound at the waist by a long wide, woven, and ornamented sash. At the top, it reached to the neck, the upper edges fastened together over the shoulders by long pins and passing unkthe arms at the sides. Like all garments, this dress was a large re4gngular piece of woven cloth, merely wound around the body. (44) The description as given above tallies with the mode of dress of the Maori. Generally speaking the description given as applied to the Polynesian women might be qualified by explalmg that it depended on what the wearer was doing as to manner in which the woven cloaks were worn. MEN The men's cloak, in Peru, was a large mantle, worn over the shoulders and fastened at the front with a large straight metal pin known as topo. (Maori:- Topuni 2.

(P. 165.) With the Polynesian the amo, or litter was similarly used, more generally wo.5d for transportation of elderly people of rank and high born women. SOCIAL ORGANISATION. Like the Maori hapu (subtribe), who did not encourage marriages with members of outside hapu; "The Inca names, for family relationships," writes Mason, suggest theirs was not a clan system with exogamy (or marriage outside the group) and descent reckoned in a single female line. The respective generations were of considerable importance." Likewise the Maori placed great importance on the genealogies, of whakapapa. The Inca as a race called each other, as the Maori-Polynesian do, by the same term as that employed for 'brother and'sister' and there were no distinction between parallel and cross cousins by their own generation. (The Maori terms, bungine brothers or male cousins of parallel generations, and ttuahinel or sister and female cousins, were similarly used. Cousins of the earlier generation were termed matua (uncle) or whaea (aunt); those of s still earlier generation or cousins twice removed were kuia, grandam, or koroua, grandsire.) The Peruvian considered that a father had sons and daughters, but the mother had only children. The Maori father referred to his son as tams (son) and tamahine (daughter); </pre>

The Maori terms for father and uncleW and for mother and aunt,were treated in exactly the same way in Peru. Mason writes, "the same terms were used for father and for father's brother, (uncle), for mother and mother's sister (aunt). To complete the affinity between Peru and Polynesia in the use of relationship terms, we have it from Mason that "the terms for brother and for sister; were different when used by a man and by a woman. With Polynesians, a man would refer to hie sister or female cousin as a tuahiRe, and to younger brother or cousin of a Junior line as teina, and to an elder brother or senior cousin as tuakana; A woman, on the other hand, referred to a brother or a male cousin as tungane and to younger or older sister or cousins of a senior or Junior with the terms used by a man namely teina or tuakana. Mason does not give the Peruvian or Inca relationship terms, and it rather intriguing to speculate on a possible linguistic affinity in this connection. </pre>

"In Inca times, as in Peru today," kson writes, "the basic social group of the people - apart from the immediate family - was the ayllu, an enlarged or extended family, a sub-tribe." Like the luiori-Polynesian hanu all members of an ayllu were related - they owned a definite territory. Although the Maori dip not exclusively reckon descent in the male line as did the Inca people, nevertheless the male lines among Polynesians gave added lustre to one's pedigree. Some aIllus of Peru, es is the case with the hapu of Aotearoa, ascribed their origin to mythical persons; and each had a name, generally that of a place or person. Hesidence was generally patrilocal: the son brought his wife to live with or near his parents. In this connection, and as a modern note, we would like to draw attention to the wedding celebrations of present-day Maori marriages; unlike that of the Pakeha, these are held among the people of the bridegroom. As was the case with the Maori, "the pattern of commoner agricultural labour for the support of the chief sinchi (Ariki with the Maori) .. was a very ancient one. The chief had considerable authority." He was responsible for the acts of his tribesmen and for the avenging of wrongs done to them. As with the hapu, the allu had its </pre>

The Maori likewise refer to the homes and people on the periphery of an extensive geographical area as being no nga hau e ha (from the four winds). Huaca or waca (Maori - daka). In the Peruvian term huaca or waca (Spanish spelling) we have an important and rather interesting linguistic affinity with the Polynesian, wake or canoe. The alter- native Spanish spelling with an aspirate, huaca, has its counterpart in the Maori with the use the preceding indefinite article, he, and a canoe may be referred to as he wake. Mason's notes on the siL;nificance of the term waca adds strength to our belief that we have evidence here of unmistakeable affinity between the two races.

The alternative Maori-Polynesian terms with similar connotation are mauri (or Talisman, a material symbol of the hidden principle protecting vitality, fruitfulness, etc., of people, lands, forests and fisheries), and where, the Maori word for house. The Peruvian had alternative terms too, as Mason mentions. Of the apachita he has this to say :"Another type of waca called apachita was a sort of cairn at a dangerous or important place on a road where the traveller paused to pray for safety and strength: hence he would add a stone to the pile or leave something of trivial value such as a piece of worn-out clothing, a quid of coca, or even a handful of straw. This custom is still practiced." This description is very similar to the Maori custom of whakarite (fulfill or render tribute) in the uruuru-whenua rite when entering into (new) land. It could very, well be that the Peruvian term apachita, with its letter changes, is the same term as the Polynesian whakarite.

There appears to be a linguistic link here, too; a 41, transpositiolandtduplication of the last syllable in Curaca will produce the Maori Kaka-kura. A further cultural affinity and a parallel linguistic term we find in the term yanacona, which Mason has described as follows ;- "The royalty and nobility were allowed many privileges such as the use -A' 'litters (amo of the Maori), parasols (whakamarumarn of the Maori) and attire somewhat resembling the emperor's, secondary wives, luxury articles and 'yanacona' servants.

Writing of the Inca ruler's sacred person Mason wrote :- "No one else might aspire to enjoy his superior goods, so all his discards and left-overs, clothing, food or whatnot were carefully saved and ceremonially burnt by an official." (85) The Maori ariki or high chief, was a like case; and he was very ttipu, or sacred; but in his case the food or articles were more often buried.

Vie shall be ending this talk with some further reference to the Io religion of the Maori, and so for the present we will continue with some further quotations from iVasonis book, which correspond with Polynesian beliefs. At page mason wrote :- "After the creation he (the Creator) interfered little in human destinies, remaining a benign divinity in the heavens. He was therefore little worshipped by the common people; the emperor and nobles appealed to him more frequently - in time of trouble.
