Māori history - Wikipedia
Over time, in isolation the Polynesian settlers developed a distinct Māori culture. Early Māori history is often divided into two periods: the Archaic period (c. 1300 – c. 1500) and the Classic period (c. 1500 – c. 1769). Archaeological sites such as Wairau Bar show evidence of early life in Polynesian settlements in New Zealand.
