The tower is made up of a rare igneous rock called phonolite porphyry. Geologists do not fully know how it formed and there are different theories on details here .
Nicholos Myers, Supervisory Park Ranger for the Devils Tower National Monument and part of the National Park Service (NPS) confirmed to Reuters via email that this claim is false. He said, “there is no evidence to support such a theory as a tree stump or petrified tree roots,” and directed people to an NPS list of formation theories, here .
Not a Tree
