On ‘The Nation' on TV3 on October 2 Larissa Wall made a comment that Maori are indigenous to NZ. This cannot be proven with facts. DNA testing, carbon dating, and archaeological evidence prove three or four cultures were here prior to Polynesian Maori arrival 700 years ago.
What happened to the Patupaiairehei (ancient surveyors)? Who drove Ngati Hotu, the redheaded, blue-eyed people to the brink of extinction? These peoples' DNA goes back 1800 years out of Persia.
Who annihilated the Turehu peoples and then there is the innocent Waitaha and the peaceable Moriori? They all pre-dated Maori arrival in NZ. Maui arrived from Egypt in 231BC.
Why does a so-called ‘free' country have 110 archaeological sites embargoed? Much evidence of NZ's blood thirsty history pre-European arrival is being systematically destroyed by persons who have an agenda to bury the truth and gain Maori sovereignty.

No professional support for her views

There is no professional historian, sociologist, anthropologist, or geneticist that supports any of her views, simply because there is no proper evidence for any of them.Let her tell us what her evidence is. An amateur historian? Who has "embargoed" these sites she talks about? What real evidence does she have for her claims? Yet there is real DNA evidence, for example, that conclusively shows Moriori were descended from Maori, and subsequent differences (cultural and genetic) only occurred after their move to and subsequent isolation on the Chatham Islands. So her claims that Moriori pre-dated Maori here are as discredited now as original education school journals saying the same.Who's really burying the truth MJ Anderson? And why do you and your mates keep trying to do so? If you're not interested in being properly informed, at least admit your prejudices against Maori.
