In Māori mythology, as in other Polynesian traditions, Māui is a culture hero and a trickster, famous for his exploits and cleverness. He possessed superhuman strength, and was capable of shapeshifting into animals such as birds and worms. Māui is credited with catching a giant fish using a fishhook taken from his grandmother's jaw-bone; the giant fish would become the North Island of New Zealand, known as Te Ika-a-Māui. In some traditions, his canoe (waka) became the South Island, known as Te Waka a Māui.

  • في الميثولوجيا الماورية، كما هو الحال في بقية الأساطير البولينيزية، ماوي بطل ثقافي ومحتال مشهور بمآثره وذكائه. امتلك ماوي قوًى خارقة، وكان قادرًا على التحول إلى حيوانات مثل الطيور والديدان. وُلد قبل أوانه وألقته والدته في المحيط، حيث شكّلته الموجات ليصبح طفلًا حيًا. اكتشفه جده وانتقل لاحقًا ليعيش مع أشقائه. تبع والدته في يوم من الأيام إلى العالم السفلي حيث قابل والده، ماكياتوتارا، الذي عمّد ماوري بطريقة خاطئة. عقابًا على هذه الحادثة، حكمت الآلهة أن يكون الموت مصير ماوي وكامل البشرية.
