undertaking a PhD to look for lost stories of M\u0101ori female deities.[3] She completed her thesis, titled Hine! e Hine!: rediscovering the feminine in Maori spirituality, at the University of Waikato in 1998.[3] The thesis examines the role of atua wahine (female M\u0101ori goddesses) in the M\u0101ori world view, and the marginalisation of the feminine, both past and present.[4]<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd32c90 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cd32c90\"
