Kaka Pōria, Pet birds, were tethered to a perch using an intricately carved leg ring called a kākā pōria. Usually made from pounamu or bone (sometimes the bone of a slain enemy), kākā pōria were difficult to fashion, and thus prized family heirlooms. When the pōria wasn’t attached to a kākā’s leg, it could be worn as a pendant or earring.
