    although they aren’t antipodal of each other (at least now in current day) and Ayer’s rock is solid stone but still … yes…very suspect.

    There is interesting theories about how certain mountains on the earth used to be formed to each other and as the earth separated there’s these slanting cliffs its like seeing a jigsaw puzzle pieces kinda scattered around. It’s one of my favorite theories to think about whenever I view slanting mountain cliffs

      So just regular structural geology then?

        That’s the fault lines, yes, but think bigger : plate / continental drift.

      The traditional name, Uluru, is what is commonly used in Australia.

      (I’m genuinely not trying to be a dick, I’ve just not heard the British name used in decades)

        Its been called by both in Australia. It’s called uluru by First Nations. Important distinction. I’m from Australia too.

          I wasn’t disagreeing that it’s been called both; I just haven’t heard the other name in a decade or so. Probably a filter bubble thing.
