Text Appearing Before Image:
ighthave chosen a ordinary name, but not so the Maori ; and the Maori is notthe only artist who has named a picture where the application of the titleis hard to follow. Conclusion. I have to thank the Eev. F. A. Bennet and Mr. J. McDonald for thephotographs and Mr. Elsdon Best for the drawings used in this article. Ifthere is too much of theory it is due to the material carefully weighed andthought over, and not to any preconceived ideas. After all, theories,having been given, are meant to be criticized, that more information maybe gathered. Afterword. Since the above was written I find that the waharua pattern(Plate LXVIII, fig. 3) is called papaka (crab) by the Whanganui. With regard to the present-day existence of the art, it has disappearedamongst the tribes of Waikato, Maniapoto, and Taranaki.

Atthat time the railway was not constructed, and the stone was near thecoach-road, half under a wire fence bordering a piece of swampy land. Itwas almost embedded in very damp ground, and was partly covered withrank vegetation. From memory I should say it was about 4 ft. or 5 ft.long, and 2 ft. wide—a hard, volcanic-looking rock, possibly a meteorite,and so far as I could judge there was no sign of any stone in the n
