    Description
    A traditional Māori gourd, also called ruka, from the Ruka whānau of Northland. Round and bowl-shaped with a neck, it has been used around the Pacific for carrying water and storing food, and is still used for bowls and containers. It needs a long growing season, and Kōanga is re-selecting for thicker shells. -> A traditional Māori gourd, also called ruka, from the Ruka whānau of Northland.
