Adzes were invaluable tools for Moana Pacific societies prior to the introduction of European tools and materials. They were made in a variety of sizes and shapes according to their required use. This toki appears to be of more modern manufacture, perhaps for tourist trade. It consists of a maka tā (stone adze) lashed with 3-ply hau kafa (sennit binding) to a wooden kau (haft). The maka tā is sourced from maka (stone) of dark basalt. It is triangular in cross section and reduced toward its poll. Its sides are flaked. The wooden kau is cylindrical with a long pronounced heel.WāhiNavataha/Tonga/PacificAccession Number1944.132Rā Tāpiringa1944Tohu Tuakiri Kē27557.2 (ethnology)WāhangaPacific Uiuitia Tāpirihia ki Taku Kete hafted adze, 1944.132, 27557.2, Cultural Permissions Apply Tirohia ngā pikitia Mātātuhi me ngā tuhinga Mātātuhi Mātātuhi Taonga Taonga Rārangi MihiCollection of Auckland Museum Tamaki Paenga Hira, 1944.132, 27557.2Takenga ā-AhureaTonganWāhiNavataha/Tonga/PacificRāPre 1944Tikanga Waihangacarved polished flakedWaitohu/māka27557.2 NAVATAHA TONGA (handwritten) 27557.2 NAVATAHA (handwritten) Navatoka (label)Pāohostone/rock/inorganic material[wood]/plant materialsennit/cord (fiber product)[mangrove]/hardwood/wood/plant material/AAT Materialsstone/rock/inorganic materialRaraunga Ine354mm174mm47mm350mm155mm47mmHuinga KaupapaMen/- PACIFIC SUBJECTS -Tools and Implements/- PACIFIC SUBJECTS -Taumata whakarōpūAdzeWoodworking T&ETools & EquipmentWhakahounga o Mua10 Dec 2020 Tūemi e whai hononga Ngā hua o DigitalNZ QUARRELSOME MAORI QUARTETTE.
