Then it was discovered by explorers from tropical Polynesia, the ancestors of the Maori. With a series of ingenious inventions, they adjusted to the very different conditions which life in this new land offered them. Meanwhile the land shaped their thinking and their mythology, folklore, poetry and art forms came to reflect their new environment. In traditional Maori thought all things have life and significance, and everything is related to everything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCONDITION\u003cbr\u003e\nExcellent with handling wear, pages as new, no stamps or inscriptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eREMARKS\u003cbr\u003e\nSee our other listings by these authors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unicorn Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55450954203428,"sku":null,"price":39.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1013\/1901\/6740\/files\/111792.jpg?v=1785057840","url":"https:\/\/unicornbooks.co.nz\/products\/the-natural-world-of-the-maori-by-margaret-orbell-and-geoff-moon-1985","provider":"Unicorn Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
