Ah! That makes sense too! But, if it is a rifle, then it looks like a small block may simply have come loose from it and fell out. (Hopefully, not beaning a hapless visitor come to pay respects) The design looks to have been assembled from many blocks and parts. I have to admit, it would be a hellaciously tough place to commit vandalism on, seeing as it's so high up with no access.
