EDIT: I realize I may have posted this in the wrong forum.
As an adolescent, I once came upon a tree that had a hole in it. Inside that hole, there contained an egg, incense stick, rice, and what seems to be meat wrapped up in foil. I didn't touch it but just saw it inside the tree. The tree was on the property of a Hmong family that lived in the neighborhood. If I remember correctly, they had a lost a child about six months or a year earlier prior to me stumbling upon it.
My questions are... why would someone put that there? Is it related to the child's death? What is its purpose?
