    The Manaia is traditionally believed to be the messenger between the earthly world of mortals and the domain of the
    spirits, and its symbol is used as a guardian against evil.
    In this form, it is usually represented in a figure-of-eight shape,
    the upper half culminating in a bird-like beak.
    It may be that the Manaia represents some spiritual or inner facet of the
    full face figure.
