Pounamu (Greenstone) plays an important role in Māori culture and is considered a treasure (taonga). The most prized taonga are those with known histories going back many generations. Greenstone is usually carved into traditional Māori symbols and is often presented as gifts to visitors or to Kiwis moving overseas.
