Tangaroa: 
Tangaroa is the ‘God of the Sea” Maori, Polynesian people and their ancestors lived close to the sea and relied on it for food and other resources. Maori believe that water is an energy because of its many different moods that change frequently. The sea has many different spiritual importances too for example the sea is where life started like fish. Fish then started to evolve into humans and amphibians “things that can live both on water and land”. Tangaroa is the son of Papatuanuku ‘The earth mother’ and Ranginui ‘The sky father’. With some stories it is said that Tangaroa is husband to Papatuanuku and Rivil to Ranginui.
