Post subject: Nike Air Max 2003 New Zealand History Early Settle
Maori are the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand, who arrived in waka hourua (voyaging canoes) around 1280. The first settlers brought with them food they could grow and harvest: the kumara (sweet potato); yams; taro and gourds. Early Maori lived by burning the forest to establish kumara plantations. They also caught birds and fish, collected shellfish from the shore and gathered fern and other roots.
The small coastal town of Riverton, in Southland, was once an important base for sealers and whalers and during the late 1800s boasted a population of about 500 Chinese, who mined for gold. Today it is a popular seaside destination on the Southern Scenic Route,
