I moved out of Auckland and recently realised the incredible history New Zealand has. I'm glad I found your channel; your footage and critical thinking are great. Thanks, KC!
Wow! Your graphics have stepped up a further 10 notches and really bring the narrative alive. It is a pity there is such a disparity on the recorded number of warriors and others thus casting a huge question over who is right. What would Stack gain by inflating the number? I tend to agree that your support of Ema Turumeke's account is far more plausible than the others.
Cheers Onslow!.Stack of course was only repeating what he had learnt from Pita Te Hori (Ngai Tahu). Another part of Stacks (Pita's)account that is dicy is Te Maiharanui and co leaving the Pa to visit Te Rauparaha's camp to find out what he was up to. Treachery was a valid form of warfare. The chances of Te Maiharanui doing this when the force he was visiting was far superior to what he had taken with him is almost zero. He might have sent a slave...that's possible. I tell ya, being a slave was the pits!
These graphics are absolutely amazing!
Cheers, but they do lack the grunge and disorder of life. Cheek out my latest episode 77, a bit more disorder, but its so time consuming to do.
Another Great episode looking forward to the next one, once again the story telling was superb, well done on the graphics. Thanks
Thank you Kiwi Codger. Always enjoy your videos.
Great piece of research. Thanks again, loved the video especially the graphics .
Cheers Rick. The graphics are part of my journey in learning blender. What with trying to get the pronunciations of Te Reo right and learning this other stuff, life is full.
@@kiwicodger yes I am sure it is. The way the Pa appeared overlaying the scene as it is today looked amazing. I would love to be able to do that.
Kia ora matua love your mahi
this episode was delayed a bit as I am slowly learning a 3d software package, Blender. Starting to get the hang of it now. Hope all is good with you Kino.
Nga mihi rangatira
'sends two thirds of his force back to Kapiti together with the uneaten captives'...^^
Te pehi was the name of my Nan’s father who was raised in Hongoeka marae in porirua. Never got to ask my Nan if her father was named after him before she passed. But then again Nohorua the older brother of Te Rauparaha is who we come from.
What a shame they didn't make a run from K. at night... may have avoided the complete slaughter. : (
Kiwi Codger, what are your thoughts on Moriori being the first settlers in NZ?
I have no idea, haven't really studied this part of NZ history. In some of the oral history of the canoes coming down from the Pacific, when they arrived people were already here. I think there have been many waves of migration from the Pacific. The Trouble is now it is all muddled up. Archeaology will in time answer many of these questions.
@@kiwicodger The reason I ask is because our whole life we grew up believing the Moriori were the first settlers. Recently the narrative has turned on its head, I'm wondering if the truth is being swept under the table for political reasons.
@@wokesick certainly the narrative today is to believe that NZ history started at the ToW. There are many agendas out there and the narration of NZ history is morphing to fit. That is one of the reasons that I pay little attention to modern oral history accounts. Anything written before the 1990's is of interest.
@@kiwicodger Thank you, keep up the good work. I enjoy your show.
Doubtful. What is not in doubt is they were the first settlers of the Chathams [Rekohu to them]~~
just a little tutorial on pronouncing Maori vowels; A - Ahh, E - Ehh, I - Eee, O - Oar (silent R) U - Eww/Ooh
Will u still be covering the N.Z wars via cowans account and Crosby's kupapa text, or has Cowans journalistic approach lost favour as new accounts come to light?
It's not my intention to cover the NZ Wars. I am sticking with the Musket Wars. I did Ron Crosby's interview on Te Kooti as I thought my subscribers would be interested. I think those interested in The Musket Wars are almost always students of the NZ Wars. History changes as new info comes to light, but should change when proved that it needs to.
yeh Iv been watching old episodes and theres one I think epi 4 where your introducing wot u may cover in the future but hey the musket battles r awesome-I jst reread Tamihana Te Rauparaha's account of Te Pehi Kupe's demise i.e 40 went in, stayed night and only 20 returned, all be it, over the step pallisading with alittle buttock scarring to boot! gr8 graphics kiwi @@kiwicodger
