Waka, but made from reeds

If you visit a museum throughout Aotearoa it won't take long to come across a traditional Maori waka But if you head to Toitu, the Settlers Museum in Dunedin, you'll see something slightly different. Toitu is home to an impressive display of mokihi, which are waka made of reeds. They were easily constructed, very buoyant, and traditionally used for travelling down braided rivers to harvest kai further afield. Jesse talks to Sean Brosnahan, a curator at Toitu Otago Settlers Museum. [picture id="4TWZ085_Reed_waka_JPG" crop="16x10" layout="full"]
