Description of this Book
Te Papa's Maori New Year calendar, Matariki Maramataka, is full of proverbs, korero, and images that celebrate Maori principles of living - in harmony with other people, and with nature. Around New Zealand, Matariki is a time of great festivity, as well as reflection and planning for the year to come. This colourful calendar begins with the Maori New Year in June - when the star formation known as Matariki (the Pleiades) reappears in our skies - and runs through to the end of May 2011. Included are images of Maori taonga (cultural treasures), and New Zealand's changing landscape throughout the seasons.
