1 hr confidence:
conical columns Explanation: You can visualize conical columns easily. Just do not imagine a cone with a pointed tip. Think of tapered columns whose cross-section gets smaller upward (first image), or think of a normal column connected to the ceiling by an inverted conical structure (second image).
