| − | Private artefact collections are a feature of New Zealand archaeology right up until the present. Many of these were aquired by presentation or purchase and these are still ways of their accumulation today. In the past, when found Maori artefacts were personal property fossicking was a way of accumulation. | + | See the Private Collections category. [[:Category:Private Collections|'''See here''']] |

| − | Some European artefact collections - particularly of bottles - have grown the same way. The advent of the protection of archaeological sites dating from before 1800 AD under the Historic Places Act has limited some sources, but found European objects are still finding their way to private collections.

| − | '''Wagener Collection''' The collection resulted from the activities of Wlfred Wagener spanning colonial, farming technology and Maori material. Some of the material came to the collection via a collection of Northy Saunders. Important archaic Maori material was from the Houhora Archaic site. The collection was housed in a private museum at Houhora but an arson attack and tour coaches ceasing to visit left it unviable. The greater part of the museum was dipersed by sale held by Webbs in Auckland in 2003. Some material was aquired by [[Auckland Museum]]. The local archaic material has been retained by the family who have hopes of reopening a small focused museum.
