Hei Tiki Maori Art Inanga Hina-Uri Pendant New Zealand Pounamu

Hand Carved Hina-Uri Maori Pendant. Material: pounamu green stone, abalone shell. When, as Hina-keha (Pale Hina), she calls the husbandman and banishes the fisherman, watches over the mother and warns the warrior, she is closely concerned with human affairs. We leave her to the guidance of Rona, and the care of Te Ahurangi and Te Rangitaupiri, guardians appointed to care for her in the days when the world was young.
