Answer:
The Maori myth features courage, but the Haida myth does not.
Explanation:
In "The Maori: Genealogies and Origins in New Zealand", the myth presents the Maori people as someone who is in control of their land and knows their abilities. The statement that "Tû opened his mouth and ate his brothers to punish them for their cowardice" seems to signify that the Maori ancestors were brave and were fierce warriors. Moreover, the narrator continues "Tû's descendants became the Mâori, the humans who are able to master anything that they decide to conquer: the forest, the sea, the food, and the earth".
Meanwhile, "The Raven and the First Men: The Beginnings of the Haida" does not necessarily include passages that seem to show the courage or bravery of the Haida people. Rather, it presents Raven playing a trick on the Sky-Chief and also mentions that the people have plenty of food and water. So, it may be that they need no such courage to defend look/ fight for their requirements.
Thus, one contrasting thing between the two texts is that while the Maori myth features courageous acts, the Haida myth has no such feature.
"The Maori myth features courage, but the Haida myth does not."
This is true because the Maori people value courage and strength while the Haida people value that which encompasses physical and emotional needs.
