THE heritage of the Maori is an important element in the life of the East Coast―and of 2XG, too. Here (left to right), the Station Manager, Leo Fowler, former director of the Gisborne Museum, and secretary to the Maori Museum Committee, and the Committee chairman, Rongo Halbert, accept custody of the relic Rakau Tamatea Reke from Hira Paenga, of the Whangara Tribal Committee. This ancient timber fragment (right) is all that remains of a huge totara, once the storehouse of the Chieftainess Hine-Mate-oro, and was probably seen by Cook in 1769. As a relic it is believed to be unique.
