Description

Waka is the Māori word for canoe. Māori ancestors were great canoe builders, navigators and sailors. Thousands of years ago, Māori ancestors left South-East Asia, moving into Oceania (Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia). It is thought they found their way to Aotearoa some time between 1250 and 1300 CE.
