Kua taunga te iwi Haina ki te kī i te 1 o Hānuere i ia tau ko te "Rā o te Tau Hou." Nō hea te pūtake o te kupu "Rā o te Tau Hou"?
Ko te kupu "Rā Tau Hou" he "hua taketake" i Haina onamata. He tikanga "Nian" tō Haina i ngā rā o mua.
I ia tau, ko te 1 o Hānuere te Rā o te Tau Hou, arā, te tīmatanga o te Tau Hou. He kupu whakakotahi te "Rā o te Tau Hou". Mō te kupu kotahi, ko te tikanga o "Yuan" ko te tuatahi, ko te tīmatanga rānei.
Ko te tikanga taketake o te kupu "Dan" ko te ata, te ata rānei. I te keri haere tō mātou whenua i ngā taonga tuku iho o Dawenkou, ka kitea he pikitia o te rā e ara ake ana i te tihi o te maunga, me te kohu i waenganui. Whai muri i te rangahau tuhinga, koinei te tikanga tuhituhi tawhito rawa atu mō te "Dan" i tō mātou whenua. Nō muri mai, ka puta te tohu "Dan" kua whakamāmāhia ki ngā tuhituhinga parahi o ngā whānau Yin me Shang.
Ko te "Rā o te Tau Hou" e kōrerotia nei i tēnei rā ko te hui tuatahi o te Huihuinga Kōrero Tōrangapū a te Iwi Haina i te 27 o Hepetema, 1949. I a rātou e whakatau ana ki te whakatū i te Repupiripia o te Iwi o Haina, i whakatau anō hoki rātou ki te whakamahi i te raupapatanga o te tau AD whānui, me te whakarerekē i te maramataka Gregorian.
Kua whakatūria mana hei "Rā Tau Hou" i te 1 o Hānuere, ā, ka hurihia te rā tuatahi o te marama tuatahi o te maramataka marama ki "Hakari o te Koanga"
