<p>[QUOTE="Taupou, post: 1433957, member: 45"]<i>Maori</i> and <i>Moai </i>are two separate, unrelated things. <i>Moai</i> are the Easter Island (Rapanui) carvings of heads. <i>Maori</i> are the Polynesian culture from New Zealand. And to add to the confusion, <i>moari</i>, is a Maori game or sport that involves swinging on ropes from a high tree or post (the moari) and dropping off out over the water.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
