Figure 21. Historic places <strong>of</strong> the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong> sealing industry. Groups 1 to 5 are defined in the<br />
text (under section 7.1) and listed in Appendix 4.<br />
A final group <strong>of</strong> localities can be more or less securely identified with sealing,<br />
but, on present evidence, the activities there seem to have been ship-based<br />
rather than shore-based, and it is highly unlikely that any physical evidence <strong>of</strong><br />
them will have survived. <strong>The</strong>se include Bligh, Nancy, Dagg, and Breaksea<br />
Sounds, Ruapuke Island, Masons Harbour, Lords River, Port Adventure, and<br />
Pattersons Inlet. For all but three <strong>of</strong> these (Breaksea, Ruapuke, Patterson’s) their<br />
connection with sealing is celebrated through their place-names, which were<br />
either bestowed by or commemorate sealers. Any attempts to change these<br />
place-names should be resisted, and their associations with sealing should be<br />
highlighted in the presentation <strong>of</strong> heritage information.<br />
