Rock and Ti Leaf Offering

Maui, Hawaii view map

An offering of a rock wrapped in a Ti leaf. These are left in some special places and (I believe) are supposed to show respect and bring good luck. Not really sure if this is a real Hawai'ian tradition, or is more "new-age-ish", or it was the former and has been adopted (abused?) by the later.

Please drop me a message if you know the history/tradition involved in this.
