Description: Photograph of a group of Maori, including Āporo Te Wharekāniwha holding a club aloft, in front of the Hinemihi meeting house at Te Wairoa, Lake Tarawera, New Zealand. Taken by Burton Bros in the 1880s. Construction of the house had been completed in March 1881 and Āporo Te Wharekāniwha died of illness in Rotorua's Sanatorium Hospital on 23 May 1886. The house was later coated in volcanic ash by the Mount Tarawera eruption on 10 Jun 1886. The house is now at Clandon Park in England. See Image:MaoriMeetingHouse-ClandonPark.JPG. The name of the house in full is Hinemihi o te Ao Tawhito (Hinemihi of the ancient world).
