According to the origins of Mori tattoo art, they were seen not just as decoration, but also as a language, a symbol of power, and a mark of honour in traditional Polynesian society. They also held a sacred importance as they were thought to possess magical abilities inherited from God. Polynesians therefore used tattoos to distinguish themselves, displaying their social status, rank, geographic origin, familial history, courage, and power. All of this data was etched into the facial skin (a moko) and the body and served as a kind of identity card for each person.

Moko, a divine treasure etched into the skin to enhance the cultural identity of Mori in New Zealand. Moko, beautiful markings reflecting the whakapapa (geneology), history and mana of the wearer. Moko, an important traditional practice used by Maori since time immemorial.

Please support this petition to include 'moko','moko kauae','mataora', 'ta moko' as prohibited grounds for discrimination. History tells us our tipuna enjoyed freedom of movement as moko wearers, a legacy we should able be able to carry on as well.

For our Tpuna, the arrival of 'the divine river' for the first time was something to be celebrated, because they saw it as an ancient river linking generations of women back to our creation stories. The blood represented our own ancestors and our descendants. When it stopped flowing, it signalled the arrival of new whanau.

Maori moko are tattoos that are unique in appearance, design, and significance. There were two methods involved in the creation of moko: in one the flesh was carved away and the pigment placed inside the grooves, resulting deep, dark lines. The second method was similar to most of Polynesia with the pigment inserted underneath the skin with a sharp-toothed comb (Gell 1993: 246-7). The carving method was limited to the facial moko while the rest of the body was tattooed in the more conventional method.

The moko also showed mana, or divine personal power and status of an individual (Starzeck 1996: 61). The moko not only indicated mana but contained mana itself. The mana of the moko was such that, later, when slaves were tattooed so that their heads could be traded, they were given tattoos whose patterns were meaningless. If they were given correct moko, the virtue of the moko would render them tapu, and they could not be killed (Simmon 1999:140).

Often the tattooed heads of the deceased were dried and smoked in order to preserve them from decay. These dried heads are the mokomokai. The process of drying the heads was also accompanied by tapu. The people performing the ceremony and the relatives of the deceased were not allowed to touch food until the process was complete (Robley 1998:146). ff782bc1db
