Possible Fossil Vertebra? What do you all think?

Found in the Canelo Hills of Arizona. About 5" diameter, 1.5" thick. Very hard rock.

 

The inner ring shows on the other side as well. Also has some very small and short grooves in rows on one edge. They look very unusual.

 

Is it possibly a fossilized vertebra? What do you all think? 

 

It would only let me post one photo. I'll try to add more after posting.

Here you can see the grooves. They're not just stripes, but are well defined.

Looks like a concretion that broke  - the lines look like an imprint from a shell. :(
