| | CNN.com - Maori compensation claim rejected - Nov. 21, 2003 |
 | | Maori tribes had lost their historic interest and property rights in petroleum due to settler breaches of the nation's founding Treaty of Waitangi, it noted. | | | In a special report it said Maori had once owned the petroleum under their lands and were entitled to compensation when the resource was nationalized in 1937. | | | The Waitangi Tribunal, an independent board which makes recommendations on historic Maori grievances to the government, said earlier that Maori tribes were entitled to millions of dollars in petroleum royalties that had been collected by central government. |

| | Yet, the doctrine of Io was much more than an attempt to amalgamate Christian and Maori beliefs. | | | For the function of this, Io-of-all-knowledge was to re-enforce the old beliefs with the sanction of a supreme deity who would match the Christian gods. | | | Most of our knowledge about him comes from "The Lore of the Whare Wananga" which was the Maori's first attempt to write down and preserve their beliefs. |

| | There is some quite deep debate over the merits of such a movement, with some Maori being strongly opposed to the idea, claiming that it will eventually destroy the iwi, severing ties with tradition and history. | | | The Kotahitanga movement seeks to create such an organization, believing that such is the best way to promote the interests of Maori. | | | At present, each individual Maori iwi (tribe) functions as its own individual entity, and there is no single organization or institution that can claim to represent all Maori (although several attempts have been made). |

| | Maori men and women did not subject themselves to this because it was a fad; nor was it a way to rebel against societal standards. | | | In a warrior society, it was also a very practical art because tattooed warriors inspired great fear in their enemies -- their bodies were proof that such warriors could withstand intense pain. | | | This essay discusses the trade in tattooed human heads once the Maori realized that the British were avid collectors of such "curios." These post-contact heads often belonged to commoners who were tattooed after death solely to satisfy trade demands. |

Experts conclude that New Zealand was first occupied in the 13th century, perhaps somewhat earlier. | | | In the late 18th century hundreds the Maoris were discovered by European explorers living in New Zealand. Their original homeland was called Hawaiiki. |
