Taonga pūoro (\"singing treasures\") secondary to voice: kōauau small notched flute (albatross-wing-bone or carved hardwood, three holes, sung-into for accompaniment of lament/lullaby/charm), pūtōrino unique-to-Aotearoa wooden bugle-flute (split-hollowed hardwood torpedo-or-case-moth profile, plays as flute OR trumpet, dual voicing represents the female and male voices of Hine Raukatauri), pūkāea long wooden trumpet (signaling), pūtātara pūmoana conch shell, pūrerehua bullroarer, porotiti spinning disc, pakuru teeth-held resonant rods, poi rhythmic ball.
