Answer 1

The evidence in the myths show that the Maori and Haida cultures are more:

A. similar than different because they have important values in common.

The Haida are North-American indigenous people. They have lived off the coast of Canada for thousands of years.

The Maori are indigenous people from New Zealand, the very first inhabitants of the country. Their ancestors were originally from Polynesia.

The myths from both cultures show that, despite belonging to completely different parts of the world, both possess important values in common. After reading about the myths we see that both peoples cherish family, social relationships, emotional and physical needs, determination, among other ideas and values. Let's take determination as an example. In the Maori myth, the characters are persistent in their attempts to separate sky and earth. Likewise, in the Haida myth, Raven does not give up until he receives the box he wants.

In conclusion, the cultures show interesting and important similarities when it comes to their values.
