Also a good resource to fill the gaps you might be missing can be found from the Journal of the Polynesian Society: http://www.jps.auckland.ac.nz/index.php

All their publications are online and easy to find.

Te Ara, ‘Ideas of Maori Origins’ http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/ideas-of-maori-origins/page-1

One thing to note is when teaching Polynesian migration to New Zealand and the consequent settlement of Maori over the country is that scholarship has changed dramatically over the last 100 years. Because Maori history was dominated by white anthropologists interpreting  Maori oral traditions things like the Greet Fleet Tradition (NZ being settled originally by seven canoes) and their instance of no pre-Polynesian Moriori culture already in NZ at the time of the fleets arrival – sometimes when you are reading resources (depending on when the resources were written) the history can become confused and entwined with myth. Looking at this website on this highlights the changes in historiography.
