Carver, Travels, pp. 180-182 (Lake Pepin); Martin, Molukken, p. 57 (Lectimor); Polack, The New Zealanders, i. p. 88 (Maoris). Cf. also Rienzi, Océanie, iii. p. 170, on the frequent quarrels between Europeans and Maoris that have arisen from a misunderstanding of these kinds of salutation. Johnstone, Maoria, p. 49: “The war dance was practised both as a martial exercise and as an amusement, and was considered equally adapted to give honourable reception to friendly visitors or to intimidate an enemy on the field of battle.”
