... They took their provisions with them,
carrying them on their shoulders, went on, and reached Te Pou.
They made camp and slept in Te Pou on the tenth day of
the month of July ('Anakena'). [E:22]
Then they all got up, carried their
provisions on their shoulders, went straight ahead, and followed
the path of the dream soul of Hau Maka. They came to
Hua Reva and said, This is Hua Reva A Hau Maka!
They went on and reached Akahanga,
took a look at it and looked around. They said: This is it! and
gave the name Akahanga A Hau Maka.
They went on and came to Hatinga Te Kohe
and saw that in this place the kohe plant had been
broken. They all said, Here it is, the kohe plant, troop
of young men! This kohe plant had been broken by the feet of the
dream soul and therefore they gave the name Hatinga Te Kohe A
Hau Maka. They went on and came to
Roto Iri Are. Again they said, There it is, Roto Iri Are
and named (the place) Roto Iri Are A Hau Maka.
They went on and reached Tama. They
looked around and said, This is Tama. They gave the name
Tama, an evil fish (he ika kino), a very long nose
(He ihu roroa). Again they went
on and came to One Tea. They saw it, looked around, and
gave the name One Tea A Hau Maka.
Then
they went on and came to Hanga Takaure. There they gave
the name Hanga Takaure A Hau Maka. They made camp and
rested at the Bay of Flies for a week (etahi pohitu).
The Explorers had made camp and rested for a week at Hanga
Takaure, it was said, and then they moved on to Hanga
Hoonu in order to stay there for 5 days.
On
the
eighteenth day of the month of July (Anakena) they went
on from Hanga Takaure. They climbed uphill, went on,
and reached Poike. When they arrived, they looked around
and named (the place) 'Poike A Hau Maka'.
They climbed uphill, went on, and reached Poike. When
they arrived, they looked around and named (the place) 'Poike
A Hau Maka'. They climbed up farther to Pua Katiki.
When they arrived there, they looked around and named (the
place) 'Pua Katiki A Hau Maka'. They came down from the
height, from the mountain, from Pua Katiki, and
reached Maunga Teatea. They looked around and gave the
name 'Maunga Teatea A Hau Maka'. They all descended, they
all came down from Pua Katiki. They reached Mahatua,
saw it, looked around, and gave the name 'Mahatua A Hau Maka'.
Then they went on and came to Taharoa. They saw it,
looked around, and gave the name 'Taharoa A Hau Maka'.
Again they went on and reached Hanga Hoonu.
They saw it, looked around, and gave the name 'Hanga Hoonu A
Hau Maka'. On the same day, when they had reached the Bay of
Turtles, they made camp and rested. They all saw the fish that
were there, that were present in large numbers - Ah! Then they
all went into the water, moved toward the shore, and threw the
fish (with their hands) onto the dry land. There were great
numbers (? ka-mea-ro) of fish. There were tutuhi,
paparava, and tahe mata pukupuku. Those were the
three kinds of fish.
After they had thrown the fish on the beach,
Ira said, 'Make a fire and prepare the fish!' When he saw
that there was no fire, Ira said, 'One of you go and
bring the fire from Hanga Te Pau!' One of the
young men went to the fire, took the fire and provisions (from
the boat), turned around, and went back to Hanga Hoonu.
When he arrived there, he sat down. They prepared the fish in
the fire on the flat rocks, cooked them, and ate until they were
completely satisfied. Then they gave the name 'The rock, where
(the fish) were prepared in the fire with makoi (fruit of
Thespesia populnea?) belongs to Ira' (Te Papa
Tunu Makoi A Ira). They remained in Hanga Hoonu for
five days. On
the twenty-third day of the month of July ('Anakena'), they
reached Rangi Meamea ...
Tunu, To cook, to
fry; hare tunukai, kitchen. P Mgv.: tunu, id. Ta.:
tunu, to roast, to boil, to cook. Churchill. ...
Sinu and sunu have shown senses which imply
contact with the naked fire, and that idea is largely
predominant in tunu, as exemplified by the definitions of
toasting, roasting, broiling, cooking on embers. Disregarding
the instances in which the word is rendered by our general verb
to cook we shall examine the exceptions to this naked flame
sense. It is used of boiling in Samoa, Futuna, Niuē,
and Tahiti. It is significant that not one of these peoples had
taken so much as the first step in fictile art, and such heating
of water as was needed was performed by dropping hot stones into
the water in a wooden bowl ... Churchill 2.
These 5 days at Hanga Hoonu covered the distance from Te Anakena
18, when the Explorers had left Hanga Takaure, to
the day Te Anakena 23 when they reached Rangi Meamea.
Therefore they were in Hanga Hoonu from "July 18 to "July
23. And as a sign for this season of needfire one of the young men
had to go back to the ship in order to fetch fire. In the glyph

This [η
Carinae] is one of the most noted
objects in the heavens, perhaps even so
in almost prehistoric times, for
Babylonian inscriptions seem to refer to
a star noticeable from occasional
faintness in its light, that Jensen
thinks was η.
And he claims it as one of the temple
stars associated with Ea, or Ia, of
Eridhu¹, the Lord of Waters, otherwise
known as Oannes², the mysterious human
fish and greatest god of the kingdom.
¹ Eridhu, or
Eri-duga, the Holy City, Nunki, or
Nunpe, one of the oldest cities in the
world, even in ancient Babylonia, was
that kingdom's flourishing port on the
Persian Gulf, but, by the encroachment
of the delta, its site is now one
hundred miles inland. In its vicinity
the Babylonians located their sacred
Tree of Life.
² Berōssōs described
Oannes as the teacher of early man in
all knowledge; and in mythology he was
even the creator of man and the father
of Tammuz and Ishtar, themselves
associated with other stars and sky
figures. Jensen thinks Oannes connected
with the stars of Capricorn; Lockyer
finds his counterpart in the god Chnemu
of Southern Egypt; and some have
regarded him as the prototype of Noah

But We cast him forth on the

And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading
plant of the gourd kind.
And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred

And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy
(their life) for a while. - Qur'an, chapter 37
