The Maori 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.
Another tradition of the Maori is Ta moko :tattooing or painting the face and body with dark arching patterns .
Traditional Maori culture is truly Awesom in art and culture !:)
Sadly like others conquered indigenous peoples ,many Maori struggle with poverty ,alcoholism,and drug abuse.
