He taonga puoro tawhito te rākau ua i ahu mai i Amerika ki te Tonga (hei tauira, Chile, Peru). He mea hanga mai i ngā kakau kākati maroke, i ngā ngongo pūangi rānei, he mea whakakī ki ngā kirikiri ririki, ki ngā kākano rānei, ā, kei roto he tuaiwi pai, he hanganga porowhita rānei. Ina whakatītahatia, ka puta he oro whakamarie, he rite ki te ua. I whakamahia e ngā iwi taketake i roto i ngā kawa karanga ua, hei tohu mō te kai me te oranga o te taiao. I ēnei rā, he taputapu nui mō te whakaora oro, te whakaaroaro, me te whakangā.
