The Whare
There are 3 iwi
Top one is from takitimu waka
Ngati ranginui.
Middle one Ngati pukenga.
Bottom one is from matatua
Ngai te rangi.
There is a rope running through them with every houses colour.
😊 the Tahuhu is the backbone of the Whare and the Heke is the ribs of the Whare
they make them to represent a Ancestors face. It always faces to the sun. the Head represents ancestor
