Abstract
Ko ngā whakaaro o te kaituhi
Mai rānō kua noho te kanohi tāmoko a te Māori he mea whakamanea. Ko te moko kauae a te wahine Māori , he tāmoko taketake, nō roto mai o Aotearoa nei. I ngā tau tekau mā rua kua kitea mai te tokomaha o ngā wāhine Māori o te kahuitara i whakatakoto mai i te takapau wharanui o te mokopapa ki te tairāwhiti . Ko te mahi a tēnei tuhinga he whakautu te pātai nei, "Hei aha i whakarauora ai te moko kauae i ngā mokopapa o te Tairāwhiti ?" He aha rā au i whai i tēnei kaupapa hei rangahau māku ? Ngawar noa iho te whakautu. He mataku nāku nei kei riro ki te pō tēnei taonga, koira te māharahara nui, e wero nei te hinengaro, te otinga atu, ka motuhia te pito ki ngā uri kei te piki ake. Auare ake! Ehara i te mea, he tauhou au ki te kaupapa nei. Ko te moko kauae, he matapihi nō ngā whāinga tapuwae a taku rahi, he matapohewa nō ngā hekenga whakapapa a taku nui. Nā whai anō au, e whakapae ana, he matatuhi te moko kauae hai mataora.
