Kisaichi-Maruyama Kofun, Ancient burial mound in Ayabe, Japan
The circular burial mound measures 70 meters in diameter and rises 10 meters high, featuring three distinct tiers constructed with river stones.
Archaeological excavations in 1988 during the Kinki Expressway construction revealed this previously unknown tomb from the mid-fifth century.
The burial chamber contained wooden coffins, armor, weapons, bronze mirrors, and jewelry, indicating the high status of the interred individual.
Visitors can reach the archaeological site by taking a two-kilometer walk from Takatsu Station on the JR West San'in Main Line.
The northwestern section of the mound experienced structural damage and collapsed during heavy rainfall in August 2014.
