Kōrero: Ngā auahatanga o Aotearoa
Ko ‘Ta te whenua’ te ingoa o tēnei tānga, nā Robert Jahnke, he tātaritanga o ngā whaiaro rerekē o te Māori me te Pākehā ki te whenua, te moni, te mana. I te wā i hangaia te tānga nei i te tau 1995, e ngana ana te kāwanatanga ki te whakatau i ngā kerēme whenua katoa o te Māori mā tētahi kōpaki pūtea. Ka kitea i tēnei mahi a Jahnke ētahi pourapa nui me ngā kupu 'kāore he whiriwhiringa', e tū ana i tētahi mahere whenua o Martinborough, he tāone kei Te Wairarapa. I whakatakotoria ngā tiriti o Martinborough kia rite ki te Tieki, te haki o Ingarangi.
