Some researchers has made a theory that says that the Maoris is from Polynesia.

With Materials like rocks and wood, the Maoris build and hunted for living.

The tribes was in lot of wars, so they could get slaves and food.

The old (and dead) members of a tribe bones was used to do a type og “magic”.

Instead of smile and hugging, the Maoris are dancing their joy.

When the Maoris were in war, they danced the Haka dance.

There has just been rugby world cup, where you can see the Haka dance.
