Recent media speculation about who 'discovered' New Zealand (the Spanish? Phoenician? Portugese?) has provided continuing evidence of New Zealanders 'fascination with our origins and where we've come from. The Spanish helmet, the Tamil bell, the Korotahi bird, and so on and so on... All focus on other explanations of our origins and settlement. Was Tasman really the first? What about the Spanish galleon buried in the sand off Dargaville? And didn't the Maori come from South America? Or were they descended from the Hopi Indians of the US? In this provocative and fascinating book Professor Kerry Howe traces dozens of explanations and theories of both pre-Maori and pre-European settlement and assesses each one. At the same time he places them in their intellectual, historical and cultural context. The book uses maps and illustrations and scholarly research but is carefully written for a general lay audience and is not an academic book. Media > Book, [PU: Penguin Books]<

[EAN: 9780143018575], [PU: Penguin Group New Zealand, Limited], PHILOSOPHY LOGIC LINGUISTICS, From space, from Egypt, from the Americas? From other ancient civilizations? These are but some of today's more fanciful claims about the first settlers of New Zealand and the islands of the Pacific. But none of them correctly answer the question: where did the Polynesians come from? This book is a thoughtful and devastating critique of such "new" learning, and a careful and accessible survey of modern archaeological, anthropological, genetic and linguistic findings about the origins of New Zealanders and Pacific Islanders. Why have there been such extreme and diverse opinions on this subject? Professor Kerry Howe also examines the 200-year-old history of Western ideas about Polynesian origins in the context of ever-changing fads and intellectual fashions.<
