Boulder wall on rock

Hi
Does anyone know the possibility and conditions for constructing a stone retaining wall on a rock? Does it have to be flat or can it work on a sloping rock?

It works. I have a dry stone wall over 100 years old on a sloping rock on the property. Dry-stone. Will fix some pictures...

Here are some pictures. Not sure if it makes you much wiser from it... Blasting stone dry-stacked in wedge shape on sloping mountain, so that the top of the wall forms a flat surface where you can walk around. Stairs up in the middle. The wall is about 220 cm high.

Edit: It's about 400 cm deep as well, so wall and wall...
