The use of the Moriori language was forbidden. The Moriori were forced to defile their ancient holy sites by urinating and defecating on them.
In preparation for the invasion, the Maori tribes seized control of a European ship. It carried 500 armed Maori with guns, clubs, and axes, as well as loaded with 78 tonnes of seed potatoes. The ship arrived on November 19, 1835, followed on December 5th by another, this time with 400 more Maori on board.
The Maori living at Port Nicolson had been planning to invade the place for some time. The Chatham Islands were chosen for their proximity and the fact that the residents abided by Nunuku's Law.
The Maori were Running out of resources. They wanted to go and conquer a place that had an abundant of resources. They had heard of the Moriori and their peaceful islands and wanted to take it from them.

Here i have the 8 stages of genocide that progressed with the moriori people.
Although the Moriori outnumbered the Maori, they chose to obey Nunuku's Law of peace. They were nearly exterminated by the Maori. About 10% of the population was killed, some eaten, and the rest enslaved.
This stage was not very present in the Moriori genocide. They just wanted things, and so invaded for the fun of it.
The Moriori were forbidden to marry other Moriori or have children with each other, effectively preventing their population growth and continuing the genocide of their people and culture even after the event. They all became slaves of the invaders; many Moriori women had children with their masters.The Moriori were finally released from slavery in 1963.
While all of the parties were descended from the Maori, the Moriori was classified as different than the Taranaki region. The Moriori had different cultures and customs as a result of adapting to local conditions.
They grew jealous and invaded the land, taking the peace and quite from them. They took 2,000 Moriori and killed them in many gruesome ways, and left with only 101 Moriori by 1862.
The sad part is, there was less Maori that conquered them. The Moriori just let them kill them off like rats.
While the Moriori were cannibals before, they created a ban on it, as well as warfare, as a result of Nunuku's law. However, the Maori were cannibals still. The Taranaki tribes not only killed and enslaved the Moriori, but ate them as well. Although this stage may be during the extermination stage, this shows that the Maori were dehumanizing the Moriori greatly.
Names were used to distinguish the two groups: Moriori vs the Maori tribes. The groups had two different languages even though the Moriori were a descendent of them.
The Moriori are migrants from New Zeland, their original name was Maori. They moved to the Chatham Islands and changed there ways. They never got in wars, and how they changed their ways was to be more peaceful. Unlike the Moriori, the Maori are cannibals, they always got into wars with one another, and they were very violent.
The 1561 of Moriori that died between 1835 and 1863 were killed by the Taranaki tribes during the genocide, some were killed by their captors, some were infected with European diseases, and yet others died of despair.
They starved most of the women and children, and some men. There were Rituals involving staking out woman and children on the beach and leaving them to die in great pain over several days.
The women wern't able to marry other moriori or have children with them. They could only have children with their masters, the Maori.
