The Aryan Maori (1885)

The Aryan Maori is a book written by Edward Tregear in 1885, which explores the possible connections between the Maori people of New Zealand and the ancient Aryan civilization. Tregear argues that there are similarities in language, mythology, and cultural practices between the Maori and the Aryan people, which suggest a shared ancestry. He also considers the impact of European colonization on the Maori culture and identity. The book is a fascinating study of the Maori people and their history, as well as a reflection on the broader themes of cultural identity and the search for ancestral roots. Overall, The Aryan Maori is an important work of early ethnography and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of New Zealand.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
