I was just at the local native american festival, and there were some geust's there. Maiorie (sp) singers, dancers, storytellers whatever. Why didn't you people tell me there was anything so damn awsome down there?

I thought it was just common knowledge that everything from New Zealand is awesome.

The Maori are the ones that invaded, executed, or enslaved the Miori, right? Or am I thinking of another tribe?

IIRC the Maoris were the natives of New Zealand, like Australia's Aborigines.

Maori are not like Aussie Aboriginies..Maori could and would fight British regiments to a standstill and beat them. Maori and Pakeha {us white eyes} make for one of the best armies ever..albeit very small...

Ah, the Maori. Who else would make war clubs out of jade?
Beauteous canoes, too.
And tattoos.

Ahh, New Zealand. Filled with hot chicks and people who talk funny. It's like Canada for Aussies.
