In New Mexico
Shiprock is a volcanic plug, which is a type of stratovolcano formed from the hardened magma that once filled a volcanic vent. Located in northwestern New Mexico, it is a prominent geological feature that rises dramatically from the surrounding landscape. The formation is part of the larger San Juan volcanic field and is composed mainly of volcanic breccia, with the surrounding area shaped by erosion over millions of years. Shiprock is recognized as a sacred site by several Native American tribes.
the formation of land
Shiprock in Navajo means winged rock and is a tall, isolated rock hill called a monadnock that is found on a desert plain. Shiprock is made from igneous rock and volcanic breccia.
land formation
It's point that juts out in such a way, that if it were in a harbor (for example), there would be a lot of shipwrecks on it. It would most likely be a single rock, but could be a composite of smaller stones and rubble making a single formation.
