About Ariana Eva Clara Mahu
2018 (February 23): Mahu, Ariana Eva Clara, 1980-2018 37-year-old Tauranga woman Ariana was stabbed in the neck whilst attending a tangi at Huria Marae and died the following morning, 23 February 2018. Ariana became fluent in te reo Māori while attending Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Tamarongo in Opunake. She then went to New Plymouth Girls’ High School and was involved in kapa haka. Many of her younger years were spent in Taranaki, where she lived at the Māori settlement of Parihaka for a time. Ariana has been remembered as ‘everyone’s mum’, an advocate for troubled youth and a staunch supporter of mana Māori. Her marae was Wairoa in Tauranga Moana. Ariana’s tangi was held in Tauranga on 27 February. Her killer, Tamati Mason, thought he was a god saving his iwi from a makutu (curse) when he stabbed Ariana. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity. See: Bay of Plenty Times (1 March 2018). Source: © Debbie McCauley https://debbiemccauleyauthor.wordpress.com/history/tauranga-moana-m....
