Today I learnt...

About Maori weapons. There are long handled weapons like the Taiaha, a fighting staff. There is a pointed fighting staff called a Pouwhenua. Another staff is the Tewhatewha, the axe-like fighting staff. Those are some weapons that I found. Here is a link to go to a website that shows more Maori weapons.
