have lived in .New Zealand for
more than 600 years. Today, 159,-
0O0 Maoris share New Zealand
with 2.212.000 Europeans or "pa
kehas." Most Maoris live in the
North Island, principally on its
eastern and northern districts. A
striking feature of the Maori pop
ulation today is its youth: ouing
to the high birthrate, only a quar
ter of the Maoris are over 30
years of age.
In the past, Maoris worked
mainly in rural industries: in sea
sonal occupations such as harvest
ing, meat processing, sheep shear
ing and the cutting of flax and in
manual work on road construc
tion, bridges, railways and hydro
electric projects. In the' last 20
years, however, there has been
an increasing movement to towns
and cities and into skilled urban
occupations and the professions.
Wherever possible Maori and
European children are educated
together. Special Maori schools
arc provided only in remote and
predominantly Maori districts. Ap
prenticeship training schemes or
ganized by government and em
ployers, and youth hostels, estab
lished by church and welfare or
ganizations and subsidized by
government, help young Maoris
to adapt themselves to city and
European life.
European immigrants in the
19th Century found a distinctive
Maori culture and a well ordered
tribal society led by hereditary
warrior chiefs and a powerful
priesthood, but lacking any politi-
el. Within the tribe every free
man could speak on all matters
affecting it. Maori religion includ
ed beliefs in immortality of the
soul and an all - prevailing Su
preme Being.

skilled in the crafts of wood
carting with stone tools, weaving
and the design and construction
of houses. The free use of curves
guished them from other Polyne
sians. They were and arc fine

an important art. The Maoris
had no written language, so their
history and traditions vcro mem

The Treaty of Wailangi granted
the rights of Britisn subjects to
the Maoris. Unfortunately, confu

misunderstandings incidental to
the Maori and European in
Maori health was already declin
ing and thereafter Maori morale
fell until about the turn of the
century a number of able young
Maoris formed a political party

race. Encouraged by a new and
enlightened official policy and the
establislunent of universal free
education, they did much to cause
a renaissance of the Maori people.
