Te Punga a Matori
Date Added: 10th Jun 2012
Site Type: Sculptured Stone
Country: New Zealand
Visited: Yes on 24th Nov 2008
Te Punga a Matori submitted by DrewParsons on 24th Nov 2008. Te Punga a Matori - the anchor stone from the ancestral Tokomaru Canoe. The Tokomaru was one of a number of ocean going canoes which carried Maoris to New Zealand around 800 years ago. There are conflicting stories surrounding the commander of the Tokomaru, one has Manaia as its commander and another has Whata. It carried the peoples who form the tribes around Mt Taranaki also known as Mt Egmont. The anchor stone is housed in New Plymouth's city museum.
