<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 108486, member: 44"]Interesting.... Just plain strange! If I had noticed that spoon, I probably wouldn't have used them as a resource. Hmmmmm..... now here is more of that Maori strangeness. According to the following site, Maori stone implements have been found in Peru, Argentine, Columbia, etc... South America. Boy, that must have been some canoe to have made it from New Zealand of today to Peru.</p><p><a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=GBMSAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA44&lpg=PA44&dq=maori+of+columbia,+south+america&source=bl&ots=XShCsT8e7A&sig=3nHQb78Ag6PEx3RueYPc0GMoDKI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiyl_mDrqfKAhXKRSYKHc5jBnAQ6AEIIjAD#v=onepage&q=maori%20of%20columbia%2C%20south%20america&f=false" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://books.google.com/books?id=GBMSAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA44&lpg=PA44&dq=maori+of+columbia,+south+america&source=bl&ots=XShCsT8e7A&sig=3nHQb78Ag6PEx3RueYPc0GMoDKI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiyl_mDrqfKAhXKRSYKHc5jBnAQ6AEIIjAD#v=onepage&q=maori%20of%20columbia%2C%20south%20america&f=false" rel="nofollow">https://books.google.com/books?id=GBMSAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA44&lpg=PA44&dq=maori+of+columbia,+south+america&source=bl&ots=XShCsT8e7A&sig=3nHQb78Ag6PEx3RueYPc0GMoDKI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiyl_mDrqfKAhXKRSYKHc5jBnAQ6AEIIjAD#v=onepage&q=maori of columbia, south america&f=false</a></p><p><br /></p><p>If memory serves, think I have heard the theory that the huge stone heads on Easter Island might be Maori related???
