Meeting-house post

Ko te marae o Te Tumu Herenga Waka tēnei ki te whare wānanga o Wikitōria i Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Ko Ranginui te tuanui, ko Papatūānuku te papa. E toru ngā pou tūhono i te tāhuhu ki te papa, arā, ko te pou tāhū, ko te pou tokomanawa, ko te pou tuarongo. Hāngai pū ana tēnei tikanga ki a Rangi rāua ko Papa.
