Background Information

  • The Moriori tribe was a Polynesian group that lived on the New Zealand Chatham islands.
  • They were a peaceful tribe that practiced non violence. They carved rakau momori into trees.
  • In 1835 a stolen European ship came to the Chatham islands. The Maori tribe were sailing to take the islands.
  • Came in search of more land, and killed hundreds to do so. Remaining living people were enslaved.

Social and world Problems

Ten Stages of Genocide

Ten Stages of Genocide

1. Classification-The Moriori were classified as different from the Maori, because of their language and tradition.

2. Symbolization- A symbol that would represent the Moriori would be their stern belief in non violence. This difers with the Maori that had no concern toward violence, if it was bad or excepted, they only cared about money and land.

3. Discrimination- Enslaved and treated as less than and had freedom ripped away.

4. Dehumanization-They dehumanized them by killing, enslaving, and eating the Moriori.

5. Organization-The Maori had planned on invading the Chatham islands where the Moriori were.

6. Polarization-The Moriori were banned from using their language.

7. Preparation-The Maori had prepared the ship in which to take over the Moriori with.

8. Persecution- The Maori came with axes ready to wipe out the Moriori, the outcome was the death of all but one hundred and one Moriori people.

9. Extermination-The Moriori were almost completely wiped out and exterminated (and now, besides half bloods, are wiped out).

10. Denial-The Moriori denied the fact that they might have needed to use violence to help their tribe survive becasue they had such a strong belief against it.

Culturally Lasting Effects

This biggest cuturally lasting affect that the Moriori face is that their gene pool is decreasing. There will never be another full blood to live again and they have few half bloods. Majority of the remaining Moriori marry and have kids with people of other races just decreasing the amount of half bloods that remain.
