  • 22 Karetao

    Karetao were manipulated in much the same way as puppets and were used to help tell stories. Songs accompanied each set of actions. The karetao is held in an upright position with one hand at its base and the other holding the cord. By alternately pulling and slackening the cord, the arms assume different positions. At the same time, by shaking the karetao at the base, the arms are made to quiver and imitate a person doing a haka.

  • 23 rewarewa

    knightia excelsa (NZ honeysuckle or NZ bottlebrush)
    Found in the North Island and the top of the South Island. Dark red flowers in Spring. Grows to 30m. The leathery leaves are long and look rather like doubly toothed bread knives. The inner part of the bark was bandaged over a wound to check bleeding and to help heal it. Rewarewa is found throughout the North Island, mainly in lowland and montane forests and in the Marlborough Sounds of the South Island.
