More than three thousand years ago, the uninhabited islands of Samoa and Tonga were discovered by an ancient people. With them were plants, animals, and a language with origins in Southeast Asia; and along the way they had become a seafaring people. Arriving in probably a few small groups, and living in isolation for centuries, they evolved distinctive physical and cultural traits. Samoa and Tonga became the cradle of Polynesia, and the center of what is now Western Polynesia. More than two thousand years ago, Polynesians exploring eastward, during times when winds shifted away from the prevailing easterlies, discovered the Tahitian and Marquesas Islands. From these "centers of diffusion" explorers reached outward as far as Hawai'i to the north, Easter Island to the east, and New Zealand to the southwest. Canoe Design Evolution One such design change was witnessed by Europeans. Design Strategy for Hokule'a3 Hōkūle‘a Notes 1. 2. 3.

A quick, easy summary Read the Full Story In the past, Māori used waka (canoes) just as we use cars today. New Zealand’s waterways were like roads, running along the coast and up rivers. Waka would be paddled along them, carrying people and goods. Polynesian voyaging waka The first settlers arrived in Aotearoa (New Zealand) in large waka from Polynesia. Waka in New Zealand Waka are built from tree trunks. Waka taua – the largest waka These were up to 30 metres long, and some could hold 100 people. Waka tētē – fishing canoes Waka tētē had simpler carving than waka taua. Mōkihi – rafts In the North Island the Ngāti Porou people made fishing rafts from layers of wood, tied together with vines.

Waka tīwai – river canoes These were very common, and were also used for fun and for racing. Parts of the waka Most vessels had the same basic parts: hiwi (hull): the body of the canoe tauihu (prow): the front taurapa (stern): the back rauawa (gunwales): the upper edges along each side.
