Different types of hakas

Different Types Of Haka

Whakatu Waewae

The haka is preformed with warriors standing upright and stamping their feet. No weapons were used in this haka , as it originated by the Tuhoe people traditionally lived on the east side of the north island.

Tutu Ngarahu

This haka was preformed with side to side jumping with battle to come next.

Peruperu

The haka was a true war dance which the two sides would face eachother before battle.

Ngeri

The main purpose of the haka was to get the warriors hyped up for battle. There were no real actions , but the warriors would show their emotions through their own type of dance.
Manawa Wera

The haka was preformed at deaths and funerals. 

Ka Mate

The haka was made from a chief named Te Rauparaha , but as years go by the All Blacks have made it more famous.

Tangi Process

Tangi Process

Whānau pani

 Grieving takes many forms and in traditional times this included haehae (laceration of the body) with shells or obsidian, or even whakamomori (suicide). The whānau pani would not partake in any other activity but would remain beside the tūpāpaku (corpse) and refrain from eating.

Pare kawakawa



The greenery or pare kawakawa worn around the head as a wreath during tangihanga has become a symbol of the tangi for many people.  It is used in a wide number of rituals including the launch of canoes and the opening of houses.

Te hahunga

The practices for hahu or nehu (the burial of the body) have changed over time. Traditionally the tūpāpaku were buried in shallow graves, or placed in secret places including caves or trees.  In some cases the tūpāpaku would be weighted down with something and buried in the sea or in a deep pool of water.

Powhiri Process

Powhiri Process

Powhiri

The pōwhiri (or pōhiri) is a process whereby the host people welcome visitors on the marae.
The marae usually consists of a wharenui (meeting house) with marae ātea (courtyard) in front, a wharekai (dining hall) and an ablutions block with toilets and showers.

Tangata Whenua (Hosts)

The tangata Whenua are usally local people. When they are welcoming new peoiple on top their land they get them to all gather together at the meeting point which is usally at the front of the building they are going in to.

Manuhiri (Guests)

The visitors to a marae who have never been there before are known as waewae tapu (sacred feet). Distant visitors are known as manuhiri tūārangi (visitors from afar). 

Karanga

In many cases, there will be no wero (challenge) and the pōwhiri will begin with the karanga or call. A kaikaranga (caller) from the tangata whenua will begin to call.


Haka pōwhiri


When the manuhiri are being welcomed onto the marae, the host people will sometimes welcome them with a haka pōwhiri (ritual action chant).

Whaikōrero

Whaikōrero (speeches) are given by both hosts and visitors on the marae.

Waiata


A waiata(song) is ussally after each speech to back up the speaker. It is often a traditional waiata.

Koha

The Koha is gift that is given  from the manuhiri to the tangata whenua. It is usually placed on the ground by the last speaker of the manuhiri. Once the speaker finishes speaking, someone from the tangata whenua will pick it.

Hongi

                       
At the end of a formal proceeding the manuhiri will be invited to come and honji(press nose) and  harirū (shake hands) with the tangata whenua. After European settlement, the kiss was introduced, and instead of a hongi men and women would kiss other women.

Hākari

At the end of a powhiri they will end with a hakari (feast) which will release the tapu (sacredness) off the powhiri.

The fourteenth of December this year I went to the river to swim while I was popping some bombs we saw some girls. I was going home and we ask them if they needed a ride we went to get some ice cream. We drove my friend James and the girl home. We do not see our friends in the river because we went straight to James house. When I got to James house we turned on the box x. Last week I played rugby we won by eleven now we are the first on the table and we will play in the final next week. I'm going home now. I'm going to sleep.
