In the days of the early. Maoris, the Haast Pass was on© of the routes used by the foray parties and also for the quest of the much-prized wai-pounamu, the West Coast greenstone (says an exchange). A recent visitor to Okura was shown a sackful of ancient adzes which a local settler had ploughed up in the neighbourhood and obtained while engaged upon roadmaking between Haast and Okura. He had been told that several old ovens and .‘‘kitchen middens” were near the Haast. He was of the ©pinion that the ethnologist and the curio hunter would find the district in the vicinity of the Haast river a prolific field in his search for tokens of an earlier age.
