Craters often have flat bottoms and forty-five degree slopes. Buttes often exhibit forty-five degree shoulders and flat tops.

Qolla Bajda - The White Qolla - Marsalforn, Gozo
Qolla's are strange shaped hills on the islands of Malta and its Gozo. They really do stand out from the other larger hills in the area but are they the starting blocks for the larger hills? The smallest one, Qolla Bajda (The White Qolla) looks very much like other Buttes seen around the world.

There are 3 Qollas close to each other on the island of Gozo (Malta), Qolla Bajda (The White Qolla), Qolla Safra (The Yellow Small Hill) and the most famous one Tal-Merzuq Hill (Ray of Light) also known as Tas-Salvatur Hill as it has a smaller version of the Jesus statue that can be found in Rio de Janeiro.
These Qollas seem to be different stages of each other, each one the next larger stage, with all having a slab on their tops. Is the last stage of growth the "proper" hills found around them that also have slabs on top, or are the Qollas on Malta their own unique formation in an Electrical Universe?

Tas-Salvatur Hill has a fascinating legend about it and is the reason why it is called the Ray of Light hill. It fits in with the EU and the idea that these Qollas were created by the EU or are at least points of interest for EU interaction.
As a further thought, if things are scalable, was "Mollies Nipple" in Utah also created by a similar process?In his book Malta Illustrata historian Abela says that people believed that the hill was a dormant volcano. This idea stemmed from the fact that according to tradition black smoke had once been seen coming out of the hill. Some still believe in this myth though geologists dismiss the idea as nonsense.
Another legend says that God punished the people of Gozo by engulfing the Island in darkness for three whole days. At the end of these three days a ray of light (merzuq) was seen coming out of the hill and it was hence called Tal-Merzuq.
