The Maori people came to New Zealand from eastern Polynesia, probably somewhere in between AD 1280 to 1300. They spread throughout the country and have a very distinct culture. Their name "Maori" means "normal" in their language. There is one known game called the Maori Stick game that is still played today, and not just by the Maori but by people all over the world. Originally, the Maori Stick Game is a traditional game that was played by the children and adults. In olden times, it was said that stick games like the Maori Stick Game helped train young men in spear fishing and handling a spear. It has been changed and adapted by many other cultures throughout the world. See the link below for more detail on how to play the game: http://www.uen.org/Lessonplan/preview.cgi?LPid=13919
