    It's the same reason that the documentary 'Poisoning Paradise' hasn't been aired on TV.

    Some people don't want other people talking about it.

    It should be put with that equally as stupid anti 1080 "documentary" that the hunters can't fathom why it hasn't been aired on the tele.

    Celts in NZ before the Maoris?

    If that's true - where are all the Gingers?

    We've been trying to breed them out in the UK for the better part of 2,000 years - and yet the fuckers still keep popping up with their red hair and no souls.

    For a more serious comment - the Celts weren't known for being expert seafairers - not compared to the Vikings or Saxons - Bandit correctly points out that the limit of their vessels was the littorals - with some being just good enough to go from Ireland to the UK.

    NZ needs to get over itself with this clean green paradise shit, it's just as bad (and wrong) as the US#1 nationalism malarkey.

    I seem to recall there was reputedly a tribe of gingers, relatively speaking, somewhere in the middle North Island. West of Taupo? Don't ask for a reference because most stuff I read was pre interweb.

    You could always watch the documentary.

    It talks about precisely that.

    I didn't - I've been on holiday.

    I had a look at the article about the Seafaring Irish - it's BS. I'll grant you that the Irish were good fishermen - but again - that's all littoral based seafaring - they didn't go on great raids like our Nordic cousins did.

    There's a further issue of a lack of an Anthropological trail - for example - we know that Polynesian cultures dispersed throughout the Pacific - which is why many of the Myths and Legends and genetic markers between say the Maoris to the Hawaiian peoples have a great number of similarities. And moreover - on populated islands inbetween, we have again similar cultures, languages, mythos and populations.

    If what is being proposed is true - where are the traces of Celtic civilization ANYWHERE in the 12,000 odd miles between here and the UK? With every other migratory seafaring people - they inevitably leave traces on the intermediate islands between where they started from and where they ended up.

    As for the structures - first guess would be a tribe experimented with using Stone as a building material - probably over several generations, even getting quite skilled at it.
    Right up until an Earthquake struck - and they realized that dry-stone building and earthquakes don't mix.

    I'd further posit that there is a little bit of bias in interpretation, as predominantly a lot of our cultural and academic traditions are English, so it's not surprising that we 'see' a structure that we are familiar with.

    No surprises there then.

    (Well to be fair, I suppose the only surprise is that you 'tried').
