TE OROKOHANGA

Te Orokohanga is a 4 part series exploring the origins of our world, the atua who crafted it and how the kōrero continues to be reflected in our whare and hapū. Join Pukenga Whakairo, Pēnā Makoare as he takes us on a journey dating back to the beginning of time.

This narrative recounts our kōrero tuku iho, the story of our world's creation and the enduring bonds between Ranginui, Papatūānuku, and their uri. In the first installment of this four-part series, Pukenga Whakairo, Pēnā Makoare, explores the collaborative endeavors of our atua and how their mahi tahi brought light to the world.

Toko were put in place to separate Ranginui and Papatuanuku. These tokotoko continue to be important in the spiritual and physical architecture of whare whakairo. Pukenga Whakairo, Pēnā Makoare, explains this significance in the third installment of Te Orokohanga.

With all things comes sacrifice, this is no different for our atua. In the second installment of Te Orokohanga, Pukenga Whakairo, Pēnā Makoare, talks about the sacrifice made to bring light to the world and how we continue to see this reflected in our whare and hapū.

The place of resonance was created by the gift of shells that emanate sound. In the final installment of Te Orokohanga Pukenga Whakairo, Pēnā Makoare shares stories of the first sounds heard in te wheiao, in te ao mārama.
