Kutsukawa Kurumazuka Kofun, Ancient burial mound in Joyo, Japan
The Kutsukawa Kurumazuka Kofun extends 107.5 meters in length, featuring a square front section and a circular back portion with a diameter of 54.5 meters.
Built during the middle Kofun period in the late 4th century, this burial mound received National Historic Site designation in 1922, with protected area expansion in 1980.
The presence of haniwa clay figures and fukiishi stones from Tokushima and Hyogo Prefectures indicates sophisticated burial practices of ancient Japanese societies.
Visitors can access the kofun, now part of Kurumazuka Park, by taking a 20-minute walk from Makino Station on the Keihan Main Line.
The interior of this burial mound remains unexplored, preserving its original contents and maintaining the mystery of potential grave goods within.
