During January to mid February 2010, an archaeological contractor and Cultural Heritage contractor surveyed coastal areas in the Auckland region. Areas included: S Manukau Harbour from Clarks Beach to Lower Drury Creek and Kawau Island. This will significantly add to our knowledge about new and existing sites in these areas and increase the percentage of the region that has been systematically surveyed. |

From the beginning of February 2010 over a two week period, ARC and University of Auckland archaeology staff and students undertook an archaeological investigation at Waitangi Falls, Waiuku. This was a rescue excavation of Tapu Tiketike Pa (R12/348) - a headland pa site that is eroding into the Manukau Harbour. To date, findings show a complex sequence of occupation and reuse.
