Precisely the reason I included it! It looks like successive bouts of water/pebble erosion has taken place, leaving a stepped cone.

However, the main ring certainly doesn't look like that, and although it does use existing cracks or grooves in the stone, I can't see how it would possibly have been done naturally.
