Tapu in North Following the tragic loss of the coaster Kaitawa in May, elders of the Aupouri tribe imposed a tapu on part of the northern coastline. The tapu ran north from the Mangonui bluff on the Ninety Mile beach round Cape Reinga to Waikuku Beach near the Parengarenga Harbour entrance. It covered fishing and gathering shellfish and edible seaweed. Mr J. Murray who had been deputed to announce the tapu said it would apply to all Maoris and Pakehas who respected the traditions of the Maori race. The tapu was lifted on 7 July by Mr H. Manuera, with ancient ceremonial and on the ebbing tide.
