Strong with cultural ties that are very ecologically sound. They have the strength of will that has helped them to survive for thousands of years in a harsh environment. |

Comparable to our own native Americans in the USA except going back much further my perception is that they have wisdom that many others do not. |

They are much like the American Indian. They were able to survive until they were conquered by whites. This is progress but it left the Aboriginals and the Native Americans without their original home and way of life! (I am white) |

Didn't really talk to any enough to get to know them personally. Unlike some ranchers that talked my ears off. |

Never having interacted with them I tend to assume their role is similar to the role of Native Americans in my home city. |

Being of Hawaiian descent I can relate to these native people. They look to be similar to the Hawaiians in their good nature and outdoorsmanship. |
