The
Koru, the fresh partly curled frond of the fern is the national emblem
of New Zealand. Already for the first inhabitants of New Zealand, the
Maori, this curled leaf of the fern did have profound spiritual
meaning. It can be found in carvings, paintings and in the tattoos of
the Maoris. Even their ensign shows its emblem. The Koru stands as
symbol for the source and the circle of all live. |
