It focuses on Captain Vasily Golovnin’s encounter with Te Pahi’s son Matara (Ngāpuhi) in 1808 at the Cape of Good Hope and the meeting between “Suvorov” officers and Māori chiefs Korokoro, Ruatara, Hongi Hika and other Māori in Parramatta in 1814. By analysing Russian sailors’ logs and memoirs, the article explores the Russians’ perception of Māori, their communication strategies and Te Reo Māori. Importantly, it offers English translations of Russian primary accounts that have never been translated in full before, providing significant contributions to heritage preservation for hapū and iwi.</p> 2024-01-24T22:39:59+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Olga Suvorova https://ojs.aut.ac.nz/te-kaharoa/index.php/tekaharoa/article/view/425 Kia ora from the new Editor 2024-01-22T20:46:49+00:00 Georgina Stewart georgina.stewart@aut.ac.nz <p>This editorial marks a change in the editorship of the journal, reflects on its history and the current political moment for Māori, and issues a call for submissions and proposals for special issues.</p> 2024-01-22T16:10:17+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Georgina Stewart
