Which Maori Deity Are You?

You are Ranginui (male) or Papatuanuku (female)! Ranginui and Papatuanuku are the primordial parents in Maori mythology, the sky father and the earth mother who lie locked together in a tight embrace. They have many children, all of whom are male, who are forced to live in the cramped darkness between them. This means that you are a leader and love to be the main person in the room. You are fiercely loyal and will fight to protect those you love.

You are Tane Mahuta!! In Maori mythology, Tane is the god of forests and of birds, and the son of Ranginui and Papatuanuku, the sky father and the earth mother, who lie closely together in a warm embrace. You are pure and innocent. You believe there is always hope, no matter how grim the circumstance.

You are Tumatauenga!! In Maori mythology, Tu or Tumatauenga is the god of war, hunting, food cultivation, fishing, and cooking. You are wise and strong, and you never back down in the face of danger. No one messes with you, not if they know what's good for them. You're dramatic, even scary at times.

You are Rongo!! In Maori mythology, Rongo is a major god, the god of cultivated food, especially the kumara, a vital food crop. Everyone loves you, and what's not to love? With your bright and happy personality, you bring joy to everyone around you. Your good energy makes other people happy and energetic too.

You are Haumia-tiketike!! In Maori mythology, Haumia-tiketike is the god of wild or uncultivated foods. Haumia was a son of Rangi and Papa, and agreed to the forced separation of his parents.
