etymology · Plazi

Etymology The species name was composed by the Ngāti Kurī Tira Me Te Wā Taiao (Science) Collective, and is a combination of the Māori words oro , to resound, echo, resonate or rumble, and wai , water. Ngāti Kurī provided the following kōrero (narrative): “The many surging currents are absorbed and deflected by the many branches of Te Orowai, thus creating the illusion of a symphony of sounds emanating from the depths of our oceans. There is a resonance of the many voices of the sea animals. Te ha o Hinemoana (the breath of Hinemoana) gives life and purpose to the many complementing sounds of the deep. The rhythm of the ocean is oft captured in the hōhonu mātauranga (deep and profound knowledge) of our tūpuna (ancestors). Our modes of learning are orchestrated by the ebb and flow of rhythmic patterns of nature. We create poetic imagery to memorise and recite our many varied kōrero (stories/narratives) and events through mōteatea (poetic chant), waiata (song), haka (dance), whakataukī (proverbs), kōrero pūrakau (the telling of myths and legends) and so on. Learning is a lifelong process, and we need to capture the diverse mātauranga (knowledge/wisdom) within the taiao (natural world) to allow nature to breathe life and knowledge into humanity. Te Orowai brings harmony and creative expression to our natural and celestial worlds.”
