No, dead stingrays cannot sting you. Their venomous barbs are only effective when the stingray is alive and able to use them for defense. Once a stingray dies, the muscle contractions that allow it to deploy its sting are no longer functional, rendering the barbs harmless. However, caution should still be exercised when handling dead stingrays, as their barbs can still be sharp and pose a risk of injury.

greenstone weapons were passed down through ancestral lines. I believe its usage was determined by availabilty to the tribe and not by rank within the tribe, although I'm sure that more accomplished warriors were prefered owners when making new weapons.
Mainly a variety of short blade-shaped one-handed clubs and long blade-shaped two-handed clubs. After European contact muskets were readily adopted and in the New Zealand Wars Maori used muskets, shotguns and tomahawks.
