Korotangi

title: Korotangi
text: The Korotangi is a taonga or sacred artifact discovered in New Zealand. It is a carving of a bird made in serpentine stone. Some Māori of Tainui allegiance believe that it was brought to the country from Hawaiki in their ancestral waka, but it is carved with metal tools, which the Polynesians did not have. It has no similarity to any other manufactured piece in Oceania. Its origin is a mystery.
