An inverse pyramid would work well for dispersing the load while saving weight. I've seen people dig back the walls trying to in effect make a pyramid, but I think and upside down pyramid is stronger if the concrete is up to the task. You don't have to think as much about the direction to load is heading to as much as the direction the load is pulling from.
