Tuhinga 14, 2003, contains six articles: three on natural history and three on human culture.

Two of the humanities articles are based on collection items such as beautiful Solomon Islands wood sculptures and Tokelau adzes, while the third gives an interesting insight in the development of Te Papa’s Aainaa - reflections through Indian weddings exhibition.
