In order to be a carved rock - it would have to be a natural rock.
In fact, it would remain a natural rock, even after the carving takes place.
You seem to suggest it could only be a carved stone column if the substance of the carving was not natural stone.

Confusion in definitions. We would define a natural rock as one that has only natural weathering and no artificial alterations.

There are numerous examples on earth, of human beings carving into natural stone. If you are not aware of these, go googling. They often used a hammer and chisel, and other such tools for the task. Believe me, it was not uncommon, particularly before the advent of concrete.

Don't need to google; I went to Egypt a little over a month ago. The carvings there are just incredible.

I also don't understand why you think the symetrical points can't be seen. There are thousands of symetrical points in view on both sides of the object. (Simply because there are still points out of view, does not mean you shouldn't consider the numerous points that are in view). In a single view, there will always be points of a 3-dimensional object that can not be seen.
The many symetrical points are there for you to see if you simply look. A few are even labeled. I've noted several for you.

I would disagree. You have drawn some lines on an irregular looking rock and called them symetrical points.

I suggest you pull it up in some good imaging software and zoom in on it so you can see it better. Then study it for awhile before you comment further.

I suggest you look at
this picture and you will see it's just a normal (uncarved) rock.
BTW, blowing up jpeg's are not a good way to analyze photos.
