maori symbols

 A couple weeks ago I learnt about maori symbols the first maori symbols is the hei tiki The hei-tiki  is an ornamental pendant of the Māori of New Zealand. ... They are commonly called tiki by New Zealanders, a term that originally refers to large human figures carved in wood and to the small wooden carvings used to mark sacred places. (The word hei in Māori can mean "to wear around the neck.

The second maori symbol is hei matau. The fish hook symbol is said to represent prosperity and safe travel over water. It's a clever design because it incorporates both the fish and fish hook motif into one design. Traditionally Maori were very reliant on the bounty they caught from the sea to survive.

The 3rd maori symbol is te manaia.

The Manaia is traditionally believed to be the messenger between the earthly world of mortals and the domain of the spirits, and its symbol is used as a guardian against evil. In this form, it is usually represented in a figure-of-eight shape, the upper half culminating in a bird-like beak.


The 4th maori symbol is te koru.The koru, which is often used in Māori art as a symbol of creation, is based on the shape of an unfurling fern frond. Its circular shape conveys the idea of perpetual movement, and its inward coil suggests a return to the point of origin.


The 5th maori symbol is Te Taniwha. Known as taniwha, they lurked in watery dens, or in caves, and were often depicted as dragons or serpents, with fiery eyes and lashing tails. Crucial to the stories of deadly taniwha were the heroic slayers, who triumphed with their cunning and courage.

Have you heard any other maori symbols.
