struggle were at an end. The 1961 religious census has some interesting facts about these historic faiths. The first point of interest is their very survival, despite declining support, in the greatly changed world of to-day. The figures are: Maori Adherents: 1926 19511961 Ringatu 3,8374,9295,275 Hau Hau 569 306 188 Followers of Te Whiti 386 41 28 Total 4,792 5,276 5,491 The adherents of Ringatu constituted 6% of the Maori population in 1926 and 3% in 1961, while for members of the Hau Hau faith the corresponding figures are 0.9% in 1926 and 0.1% in 1961. The relative strength of Ringatu is striking. The census figures help to explain this.
