Searching
For several reasons, including lack of resource and inherent ambiguity, not all names in the NZETC collections are marked-up. This means that finding all references to a topic often involves searching. Search for Kāi Tahu as: "Kāi Tahu", "Ngāi Tahu"; "Ngāi Tahu". Additional references are often found by searching for just the main name of the topic (the surname in the case of people).
