Happy Little Mayor

In addition to the fat that was comparable to a fattening pig, Atulu's skin was tattooed.

On his left shoulder is a roaring male lion, on his right shoulder is a scorpion poisonous scorpion, at the heart of his left chest lies a crab with teeth and claws, and other positions include a neck and tattoos.

Pointing at the tattoo, Pharaoh screamed, "Atulu, I don't care what tattoos represent in your Maori culture, but in our country, those who dare to wear lions and scorpions like you are all gangsters! So you better Be sturdy, at least worth your tattoos! "

Tattoos are a traditional tattoo art of the Maori. What is more unique is that they regard head tattoos as noble, and those who are more fierce do not stab on their bodies, but on their faces. In this way, some big-faced ghosts can often be seen on the streets of New Zealand, and they look even scarier than terrorists.

However, tattoos cannot be used to judge Māori people. Many people may have tattoos on their faces, but they are kind and have a good temper.

In recent years, as the globalization of the world economy has intensified, Maori people have less tattoos on their faces. Otherwise, it is difficult to find a suitable job. Tattoos ca n’t even see their faces clearly. You ca n’t let the boss find someone based on tattoos.

As Turu was about to speak, Hani waved his hand to stop him, and frowned, "Wait, man. As far as I know, in the Maori culture, your tattoos have sacred meaning. What do these things mean to you? ? "

Pharaoh did not understand the tattoo culture of the Maori, and Hani gave him a brief introduction.

The Maori people call tattoos ta-moko, and the original tattoos are roughly divided into three types: scar, burn, and tattoo. Maori mostly use tattoos to represent the tribal logo. The more tattoos on their body, the more distinguished their status.

Among them, no matter what the pattern is, each tattoo pattern on them is unique. It records a person's occupation and status in the tribe, and can also record his family, even his lifetime achievements and achievements, just like a seal. Personal history on the skin is a symbol of status and achievement.

Introduced here, Hani asked, "Do you know the Treaty of Waitangi?"

Pharaoh nodded. Of course, he knew that this treaty opened a new era for Māori and white immigrants. Now New Zealand's National Day is the day when the Treaty of Waitangi is signed.

Hani went on to say: "Then you don't know, when attending the signing ceremony, the chiefs of the Maori ethnic group drew tattoos on their faces as signatures, and according to the agreement, the chiefs at the time had to be chiefs. Face tattoos for the contract to take effect! "

Charlie also nodded: "Yes, for Chief Maori, facial tattoos are very important. They are equivalent to the European aristocracy's national emblem and the private seal of your big Chinese businessman. Carry it with you and you can stamp it wherever you go. Effective. "

In view of this, the Maori tattoos are more abstract, and the patterns are mostly swirling and mysterious patterns, which have unique meanings, so that it seems to be compelling on some contracts.

Otherwise, like Atulu, tattoos are lions and scorpions, which look very fierce, but the signing of the contract is more amused. People who do n’t know why they think it is a comic strip.

After understanding this, Pharaoh also looked at Dao Maori and asked: "Yeah, Atulu, the tattoos on your body are not the same as those of your compatriots. What is the unique meaning of you?"

Aturu was about to speak again, and Mexican pretty boy interrupted him again, guessing: "Wait let me guess, I think the lion should be the totem in your clan, and the scorpion represents your status ..."

"No, this is a constellation. My eldest son is Leo, my youngest son is Scorpio, and my wife is Cancer, so I have a lion and Scorpio tattooed on my shoulder, and a Cancer is in my heart, indicating that I love my wife and I will feed me Child. "Han Maori interrupted the words of Mexican pretty boy.

After listening to his explanation, a group of people in the room were like a wooden chicken, Pharaoh blinked, and the reason for the tattoo of Aturu was quite in line with Chinese culture, but you are a Maori on horseback!

Looking at the crowd's response, Maori Han was also embarrassed. He rubbed his nose and whispered, "I'm not ta-mo ko, it's ki-ri tuhi."

"What?" Pharaoh didn't understand, and Atulu spoke two Maori words.

Hani continued to explain to him that ta-moko said earlier that it meant tattoos, and ki-day tuhi also meant tattoos, but there was a very big difference between the two!

Ta-moko refers to the kind of tattoo that represents ethnic groups and cultures. It has a special meaning and cannot be tattooed on the body. It needs to be recognized, and it can even be said that it has intellectual property rights.

This is not an exaggeration. Hani turned on the computer and searched for a news for Pharaoh. This was a lawsuit in Wellington last year. A Maori sued an Italian company. The latter used the tattoo on his face as the company logo. The tattoo represented his father. The court ruled that the Italian company lost the lawsuit: What do you mean by painting your father on the wall?

ki-day tuhi refers to the art decoration on the skin. It has no sacred meaning, and it doesn't matter if you just stab anything.

After understanding this, Pharaoh said to Aturu, "I am convinced by your horse, brother, in capitalism! Are you also a patriarch, aren't you? How can you stab these signs? Why not stab your particularity Tattoo? "

Atulu said weakly, "Head, I wanted to stab when I was young, but it hurts too much, and we are a small ethnic group. There is no special culture.

"Then why did you stab it later? Don't you feel the pain again?"

Atulu shook his head and said, "No, this is what my wife asked me to tattoo, otherwise she would hit me, and that old lady would hurt me more than a tattoo!"

"Ah, your mother exploded!" The captain opened his beak and widened his eyes, and for the first time showed a stunned bird.

Wang Bo sighed and said, "Who can do anything? I don't think I can do anything about Aturu's fear of his wife."

"I can't do anything, let the weird go try, he dare to roar, lion roar!"

Hani suddenly anxious: "Yag, what resentment? Why push me this? Why do you think I'm too popular in the town?"

Atulu stared at them with wide eyes and said, "What the **** do you want to do? What can you do?"

"We want to help you fight for family status!" Wang Bo said.

Atulu said inexplicably: "I have a family status, why do you need to fight for me? I'm not afraid of Lily. I respect her. She paid so much for me."

"For example, she gave birth to two sons for me. For example, if I was bullied outside, she would go out and give me a shot, for example, cook and eat for me every day ..." )
