Search directly across the research reports behind Wai 2000 — a name, a place, a block.
This shows you the real passages, word for word, with the source and page number. No
AI, no summarising, no risk of it getting something wrong — just what's actually written.
This covers what's been processed so far: eight reports in full —
Ben Leonard's Wāhi Tapu and Portable Taonga, Volume I, Maxwell &
Huebert's Volume II (Archaeological Report), Heather Bassett's
Muriwhenua Post-1865 Block Narratives, Report One, Megan Mulder's
Pre-1865 Crown Transactions and Reserves and her signatories list,
Leonard's wider Te Paatū: Wāhi Tapu and Portable Taonga report, the
Te Paatū Customary Interests Report draft, and Woodley's Parapara
chapter — plus the first 172 pages of Bruce Stirling's draft, covering Ngāti
Tara's origins through the Old Land Claims and the Parapara and Okokori title
investigations. It doesn't yet cover the rest of Stirling's draft (Hikurangi,
Puketū, the Oruru Valley blocks, Toatoa, Mangatete, Kaiaka and Maungataniwha
reserves, and Peria are still to come), Woodley's other 20 chapters, or the
Te Paatū Volume II archaeological assessment — it will grow as more of that
research is brought in. If your tupuna doesn't turn up here, that's not
evidence they're not in the record — it may just not be indexed yet, or
spelled differently than you searched (try the different spelling suggestions
if a search comes up empty).
