Matariki facts.
This week me and my school have been learning about more Matariki facts like.
There's more then 7 stars there are actually 9 stars the two that we did not know about their names are Hawaii and pahutakawa.
Matariki is the Maori name for the Pleiades star cluster.
It rises during Pipiri (June or July) and marks the beginning of the Maori new year.
The word is an abbreviation of Ngā Mata o Te Ariki (Eyes of God)
that God is Tawhirimatea God of the weather.
That is only some of what my school has been learning I really do not know what ells to say except thanks for reading my blog.
