    looks to me like it might be a fossilized egg. But that's just a guess on my part. google dinosaur eggs.

    Maybe just a concretion. Sometimes some little object gets positioned in such a way that gunk builds up around it while retaining some sense of the original shape. Concretions can have weird shapes. There may be something very small at the center of that thing that started it off.

    I understand this is a closeup of the roundish "cleavage" in the rock surface. @moreotherstuff might be right then -an layering of various materials.
