Title: Maori in Aotearoa New Zealand
Author: MIKAERE BUDDY
Blurb: Buddy Mikaere provides a highly readable historical overview of early settlement in New Zealand, and examines the impact of colonisation and later a developing urban world on Maori and their traditional way of life.
Today, the importance of marae and community remains strong, as do many time-honoured rituals.
The renaissance of Maori culture has included the revival of the language and the flourishing of creative arts, including:
whakairo – carving
kapa haka and haka – performing arts
waka ama – outrigger canoe racing
ta moko – tattooing
music, arts and crafts.
Maori in Aotearoa New Zealand introduces visitors and locals alike to the culture and customs of Maori in contemporary New Zealand.
