It shows the range of items carved from meeting houses to musical instruments, waka or canoes, storehouses, weapons and ceremonial items, such as boxes and staffs, and gives detailed information on the carving of wharenui or meeting houses - the epitome of the carver's art. Information is given on how to read and understand a carving, looking in depth at parts of carvings and what to look for in elements such as the head, arms and hands of figures and the surface patterns used. The patterns and body styles are described and accompanied by detailed photographs that make identification of the elements easy. This is part of a series of four books on aspects of Maōri culture. The others are: Geothermal Treasures: Māori Living with Heat and Steam; Māori Weaving: The Art of Creating Māori Textiles; and Marae: The Heart of Māori Culture"--Publisher information.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Hawaiian & Pacific H 736.08999 Mu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library R -- Hawaiian & Pacific H 736.08999 Mu Non Circulating   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 736.08999 Mulholland Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 736.08999 Mu Checked out 06/10/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 736.08999 Mu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 736.08999 Mu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 736.08999 Mu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Hawaiian Nonfiction H 736.08999 Mu Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
