Description
'A signally important text in the canon of Maori history.'
- Michael Stevens
The dynamics of an evolving southern world are mapped by distinguished archaeologist Atholl Anderson in a new edition of his groundbreaking book from 1998. The Welcome of Strangers traces the early migrations of Waitaha and Kati Mamoe people and the later arrival and settlement of Ngai Tahu. These were the communities that the first Europeans encountered, as whalers, sealers, and missionaries made their way around the coast.
With new research, informative maps, and a strong visual narrative, The Welcome of Strangers is co-published with Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu.
