Succession...
The
Court’s investigation of title began on 15 March
1866 and was heard initially in the Masonic
Hall at Napier, with Judge Smith presiding and
Te Keene and Te Hemara sitting as Assessors.
A primary function of succession for Māori is to maintain whakapapa connections
to their whenua (land), whānau(family), tupuna (ancestors) and atua (gods).
