A trailblazing Māori scholar has finally received the recognition she deserves — nearly 100 years after her passing.

Mākereti Papakura, believed to be the first Indigenous woman to study at the University of Oxford, has been awarded a posthumous degree certificate.

Papakura sadly passed away in 1930, just weeks before she was due to present her thesis. Her research was later published as The Old-Time Māori — the first ethnographic study written by a Māori author.

We hope this brings a smile!

Vintage Kambrook Filter Coffee Maker

Sue from Orakei

This is good condition and still works well. Slighly faded to a creamy white. Great for a flat. Looks like a small broken piece on handle but not sure what that could have been. It does not make any difference in pouring.

Price: $20
