hummm..wow...huhhh...humm...they seem to have quite a bit of patina on them, very interesting..I am no expert but that looks very interesting. It looks like the top half has fallen over to the side. For a better idea of what this might be a site survey would include some things like size of circles, any other features present in the area (pottery, morteros, etc), ease of access to the boulder, etc. Sometimes you need to add up many different clues to get a better picture of what is there. I have heard that sometimes these kind of patterns could be calendar or record keeping type of symbols. For example, each time you have passed this site you scribe one more circle, maybe each season, etc.

Again, I am no expert..just another explorer of the desert like you. If you want o PM me maybe we can look more closely at this and involve more knowledgeable people.
