1 окт 1796 г. - On October the 6th
Captain James Cooks
ship the HMS
endeavour sailed into
a New Zealand bay
and had the first
sighting of maori and
it did not go down well.
They blew their
trumpets and fired their
cannons and the local
maori took that as a
sign of war. Cook later
journeyed to hawaii
where he met his demise.
