The Maori



According to myth and legend the Maori people left their homeland in the central Pacific to settle in Aotearoa, land of the long white cloud - New Zealand.
 
As far as we know the first European to arrive in New Zealand was Abel Tasman in 1642.
 
The great Captain James Cook was to arrive later and he and his crew
comprehensively mapped the New Zealand coastline. Joseph Banks, made many superb drawings and watercolours of New Zealand landscapes, flora and fauna giving us an idea today of what plants were around at the time of Captain James Cooks visit.
 
The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 by some Maori chiefs and the Crown to declare New Zealand a British colony.
