Matariki – Māori New Year

  On June 21, we welcome in the Māori New Year.

Matariki (Pleiades) is the Māori name for a small but distinctive star cluster that drops below the horizon in April and reappears in June. Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand  explains the cultural significance of Matariki for Māori.

Matariki can be seen in the night sky.

On the Christchurch City Libraries website, Rakiihia Tau is Upoko or head of Ngai Tuahuriri and he explains the meaning of Matariki for Southern Māori and puts it in the context of the year-long cycle of mahinga kai — gathering food and the necessities of life.

Books in our Māori collection on Matariki include :

Hakaraia, L. & Urlich, C.W. (ed.s) (2008), Te Kāhui o Matariki : Contemporary art of    Matariki – N7406.7HAK

Hakaraia, L. (2004). Matariki : the Māori new year – DU423.A85HAK

Hakaraia, L. (2006). Celebrating Matariki – DU423.A85HAK
