The Name shellack comes from indian origin word "Lakh" which means 100,000 referring to the many number of small insects involved in making it. Theft is real.
First of all, great video. I have conducted a little study on the maori. It seems that the maori have a very imperialistic/violent culture and beliefs. This would justify the hostility towards their opposite, the moriori culture, which has a more pacifist vision. Please correct me if im wrong. Thank you
You are wrong. Māori are very diverse. Some were violent and warring, some were great traders and peacemakers. The group who attacked the moriori were violent opportunists. Blaming all Māori for their actions would be like blaming all Europeans for the actions of the Nazis.
This is fantastically informative. In my French class, I am teaching train station vocabulary, which includes the word "quai". My desire to know more about the word brought me here, and I'm impressed with the thoroughness of the information and the visuals. Great job!
Moriori were not wiped out in the bay of plenty and east coast of the north island were intermarried as stated in the book te waharoa written on the 1830s
Māori dispute that their ancestors slaughtered the Moriori, they said the British made this story up to make Māori look bad but most Māori acknowledge that their ancestors did slaughter the Moriori and enslaved and ate many of them.
for most maori that is true - their ancestors did not attack moriori. it was a specific event in 1835 and only involved warriors of two iwi. saying "maori did it" is like saying "europeans committed the atrocities of the holocause." the british did make up the story of all this happening on mainland nz when maori first arrived, but that myth was debunked a hundred years ago.
In Dictionary! Longman, Cambridge, Oxford or another book, paper can be searched (looked up)... Actually, my pocket, Luxury dictionary (Ancient-great quality paper), let me check! I love it! Thanks for sharing to classify!
Recent dna research results prove Maori and Moriori actually have the same DNA lines. Moriori originally came from Rekohu/Chatham Island, not Aotearoa. Contact Hokotehi Moriori Trust to learn the history.
So Polynesians raped murdered enslaved stole land ate people. The British did many of these things too why are the two cultures treated differently Europeans are told to be on a never ending guilt trip but Polynesians and many other cultures around the world at that time were just as bad if not far worse time for some balance in the First Nations? Debate
Glad to have seen Chad, it didnt look so bad given it was Chad. Being tied to Bangladesh in corruption vying for better spot, the nation with multiple languages seemed like the heart Africa wanted! Thanks for the informative video🎉🎉🎉
