THE FIRES TO QUICK SURF SITE
The following is an example of what will be in one of my 'Transliterations' and what I am working on in my database and also for the book "I Te Pukapuka O Rorokai", regarding myths, legends and facts such as The existence or not of Atlantis which is the shortened version of the words A tu ra no ta su which however connected or not provide plausible meanings to the place and whether it was a geographic or metaphoric place. If anyone saw it the beginnings of this work were made available 2005 onwards at 'www.almond.com/hawaiki', because it was free web space but proved inadequate, unreliable and now not functioning. I decided to spend some money and create my own site.
