The hei-tiki is an ornamental pendant of the Maori.. Hei-tiki are usually made of pounamu (greenstone) and worn around the neck. For many Maori the wearing of such items relates to Maori cultural identity. They are also popular with young New Zealanders of all backgrounds for whom the pendants relate to a more generalized sense of New Zealand identity.
