Kawatiri

 

I'm sharing a little mural this week seen in Westport last time we were there. The meaning of "Kawatiri" refers to the Buller River. In Māori it means "swift and deep" and is linked with the Ngāti Rarua chief Kawatiri who watched over the trail between Ngai Tahu and Ngāti Rarua lands.

Linking up with Mural Monday.
