Of all Maori personal adornments, the human figure pendants known as hei tiki are the most famous, highly prized and culturally iconic. This book celebrates the long history of hei tiki and the enduring cultural potency of these taonga. Te Hei tiki showcases stunning photographs of a large selection of hei tiki, most from the taonga Maori collections of the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and provides fascinating details of the history and culture behind them.
