Book excerpt: Aro-takaro are the 'face' of traditional Maori games. They are the iconic implements associated with indigenous games practices, rituals and protocols. A testament to their prolific ancient uses are the numerous games artefacts, vividly etched in millennia-old cave paintings, all over Aotearoa/NZ.

The Hohou-Rongo utilised aro-takaro as mechanisms for peace, enjoyment, social bonding and in education to make their tribespeople resilient and adaptive.

Download or read book Nga Taonga Takaro written by Harko Brown and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Nga Taonga Takaro, Harko Brown writes about the revival of more than 20 ancient games and sports of the Maori - including poi, stick games, kites, ball games, memory games, and board games. He traces the history and legend behind each game, and gives clear instructions on how to play, the rules of the game, and how to create the equipment used. The games are illustrated with action colour photographs throughout, to enhance readers' understanding of these indigenous sports. Traditional Maori games were used to transfer skills and techniques from playgrounds to battlefields, to promote learning in wananga, to problem-solve everyday situations, and to pass on the values and intellect from one generation to the next. In Nga Taonga Takaro, the games have been adapted for a contemporary audience - individual and team sports for schools, community groups, marae and workplace.
