Auckland. April 2009 AjrAuckland Museum's Maori Treasures Gallery is a place of so many taonga (treasures) that it leaves you feeling a little overwhelmed. There's an intangible sense of power there too. It's a place that demands time and attention. This carved head is a Kahia (palisade post) carved in the style of Ngati Manawa and the Tuhoe iwi of the Bay of Plenty Region.
