Something happened here.

 

This kit contains 36 starting points. 

Choose one. It is a photo of a place you do not recognise. It has no signposts, no map coordinates and no address. This place holds many stories - what you can see in this photo may reveal nothing of the things you are about to examine. Because something happened at this place, something began here. 

Click on the photo and you’ll see a pepeha. The land is speaking to us. Listen carefully because the pepeha tells us where we are.

Each clue you solve will give you a piece of the puzzle. Each puzzle, when completed, tells a story. Stitch all of the stories together and a larger picture is revealed. Prepare yourself.  You will need to listen, watch, search and find. The stories you will piece together are not well known and this is important work.

Now…Let’s begin.
