Activity 9

Task description:

Ngahuru (Autumn) is the time of year when crops are harvested and stored ready for winter. Māori stored their crops in pits, ready for the upcoming winter months.

Research traditional Māori storage.  Eg pōhā or rua kūmara, pātaka, now we have to research traditional Maori storage and this is what i found.

Pātaka – small, raised buildings, some elaborately carved  were used to store food for ceremonial events and winter use. Storage pits, sterilised by fire and sealed against vermin, were also used to hold some foods, such as kūmara.
