Ring for tying up horses, Siena, Tuscany, Italy

We're not completely sure what the ring in this photo was used for. My initial thought was that, many years ago, they were used to tie horses. However, some of them are fairly high on the walls and others are very low. Regardless of use, this one has cut quite a dent into the stone wall it's mounted on. The ring is almost 10" in diameter.
