Download or read book Decolonizing Conservation written by Dean Sully and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues for an important shift in cultural heritage conservation, away from a focus on maintaining the physical fabric of material culture toward the impact that conservation work has on people’s lives. In doing so, it challenges the commodification of sacred objects and places by western conservation thought and attempts to decolonize conservation practice. To do so, the authors examine conservation activities at Maori marae—meeting houses—located in the US, Germany, and England and contrasts them with changes in marae conservation in New Zealand. A key case study is the Hinemihi meeting house, transported to England in the 1890s where it was treated as a curiosity by visitors to Clandon Park for over a century, and more recently as a focal point of cultural activity for UK Maori communities. Recent efforts to include various Maori stakeholder communities in the care of this sacred structure is a key example of community based conservation that can be replicated in heritage practice around the world.

Book excerpt: Mataatua wharenui is the most travelled M'ori meeting house in the country. Built in 1875, it was taken to Australia, London and Otago before being returned to Whakat'ne after more than a century away. The story of Mataatua is part of the story of the desecration of Ng'ti Awa by the Crown and the fight of the people to regain their sovereignty. Following the confiscation of Ng'ti Awa land in the 1860s and the devastation to the people of Ng'ti Awa, building a wharenui was proposed as a way to reunite Ng'ti Awa. The result was Mataatua, a magnificent wharenui, honoring the people, their history and whakapapa, and the skills of the craftspeople, and establishing a living marae.

Book excerpt: Drawing on original material form archives in both Britain and New Zealand this story recounts how skilled Maori craftsmen carved and constructed this whare nui at Te Wairoa in the Hot Lakes region of New Zealand's North Island, close to the spectacular Pink and White Terraces. A wonder that it was not lost in June 1886 when Mt. Tarawera erupeted without warning killing over 100 people. Only Hinemihi was strong enough to withstand the rain of fire and stones saving those who sought shelter in it. The story goes on to tell how Hinemihi came to be purchased for £50 by Lord Onslow and shipped to his estate at Clandon Park in Surrey.
