Now this looks excellent. Just heard about it on the radio. An online encyclopedia of New Zealand put together by the Ministry for Culture and Heritage / Te Manatū Taonga.
Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand
In Māori, Te Ara means ‘the pathway’. Through interlinking text and image trails, the Encyclopedia takes you on a journey of discovery. Beginning with the theme of Peoples, it will eventually present a comprehensive guide to New Zealand – its natural environment, history, culture, economics and government.
Would have thought it would be called “Te Ara : The Encyclopedia of Aotearoa New Zealand” though.
