pou tokomanawa (anthropomorphic supporting elements, <supporting and resisting elements>, ... Components (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: The first of three upright posts that support the tāhuhu (ridge pole) of a large whare tupuna (ancestral house) or whare runanga (tribal council house), providing structural stability and supporting the roof. They usually incorporate carved figures, often a significant ancestor of the tribe. When seen in museums today, the figures have usually been sawn off the pole.

| Portuguese ..... O primeiro dos três postes verticais que suportam o tema (cume pólo) de uma grande casa antiga (Ancestral House) ou Câmara dos Representantes (casa de conselho tribal), proporcionando estabilidade estrutural e suportar o telhado. Eles geralmente incorporam figuras esculpidas, muitas vezes, um ancestral significativa da tribo. Quando vistos em museus hoje, as figuras têm geralmente sido serradas fora do pólo. |
