We making our way up the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand and stopped at a little store run by a Maori gentleman. Outside the store (and pictured on their menu) was this statue - something we couldn't imagine seeing in the US.

I don't know much about New Zealand.. Who are the Maori?  Are they European?

The Maori are of polynesian descent and arrived on New Zealand long before the Europeans.
