WAITOMO CAVES.
Although the Waitomo Caves were known to the Maoris for many years, they did not enter them owing to their juperstitious dread of the taniwhas (monsters), who were supposed to haunt the caves. The pakeha, having no such dread explored the caves in a canoe. However, a new entrance has been found since, making the use of a canoe unnecessary.
