The Maoria are an indigenous culture of New Zealand.
New zealand is a large island in the South Pacific Ocean off the
south east coast of Australia.
Some contemporary Maori are traditional, some live
non-traditional, modern lives.
One tradition of the Maori culture is the Haka war dance. The
dance however is now performed for ceremonial purposes, not
war.
Another tradition of the Maori is Ta moko: tattooing or painting
the face and body with dark arching patterns.
Traditional Maoria culture is truly special and interesting
(:
Sadly , like other conquered indigenous people , many Maori
struggle with poverty, alcholism and drug abuse.
